Inside and Out - Interior MOD's and IDEAS

i have a 96 civic 4dr EX, and i have a stock interior. any one have any ideas to customize interior, modify the dashboard, change color, etc on the interior. i am just looking for ideas because im tired of that same old interior look in my car.

what color is your interior? if it's black i say leave it black
you will get tired of colors. if it's not black you could paint it black, by removing the various parts from the car, cleaning them, and using some duplicolor plastic paint for trim, and vinyl paint for the dash and door panels.
it's really a lot more work than it's worth IMO
i got tired of my tan interior so i sold the car and got a new one... too much work to switch colors. (there were other reasons i didn't like the car too... automatic tranny, 4-door, no power options, crap engine)

no my interior is gray, i hate it!. how hard would u say it is to paint all the dash and other components?

and exactly wat type of paint do i need

It'll probably take you all day to remove all interior pieces and clean/paint them. Then you have to let the paint cure for a long time. Then when putting the pieces back in be careful with the paint so it doesn't chip or anything.
I painted only a slight part of the interior in my old civic. Believe me, if you're not that skilled with a rattle can and not patient, it will probably turn out like crap. It's really not worth the time.

and exactly wat type of paint do i need
i already told you:

duplicolor plastic paint for trim, and vinyl paint for the dash and door panels.

damn dat seem real complicated..
o yea i was gonna ask you, do u know eaxctly wat bulbs u pulled out of the back of the cluster to make it all blue, or did u just pull all of them

pulled all the bulbs that actually illuminate the cluster
my cluster is completely different from yours so i couldn't tell you

Don't paint, use dye instead

If you want a really good way to liven up your interior, I would say get some colored racing seats, in red/black or whatever else you like. It's the most noticeable thing about the interior, and you can enjoy its looks and its comfort.

+1 great suggestion. that's definitely the best way to make your entire look more exciting.

also, do the colored dash lights and a/c control lights DIY


grey interior really isn't that bad. i would be satisfied with grey... now tan, that's an ugly interior color. the civic's use a really ugly shade of cheap looking tan. leather tan interiors on other cars are nice however.
