Default Should I Drop The ~$300?

Yea so I just recently took the interior out of my car aside from the carpet, seats, and dash out of my car to paint it black. After I'm done with those then the rest is comming out so my interior is black. I wanted to replace the carpet and headliner with black but I called around for someone to redo the headliner and they said it would cost around $130-160 then new carpet off of ebay that is molded to fit my car is $170 cheapest. Should I pay the money and get it done or just leave the headliner and the carpet grey?

It'll look fine with the grey as long as its not super dirty and faded which it shouldnt be cause your car doesnt look that old
save the 300 bucks and put it intoa performance aspect of your car

I dono, the more I think about it then the more I keep thinking that if I don't do it then I will always look at it and wish I did. So I think my mom is going to try and help me do the headliner our selfs and I will just cough up the 170 for new carpet. I have a leak in my trunk that I'm fixing soon and my back seats and carpet got soaked a lot so its probably all mil dewy under my carpet and needs replaced anyway. So I know everyone is going to say go black but should I keep the green or go strait black? lol

Man the headliner is extremely easy to do yourself. I just barely ripped my down yesturday and started working on it. I think total cost is going to be around $40 for the material and supplys and thats it. I will be putting pics up this week since I am doing so much interior work to my car right now.

As for the carpet. You can hardly see it so you could probably save the money. For me I just want it all to go together so I am getting new carpet for mine. But that one is hard to do yourself I hear. I just ordered the pre-molded stuff.

I think it would be pretty badass if you did the headliner yourself (black) and got the carpet real super clean and left it grey...

Then you can get black/grey racing seats as the cherry on top.
