It would really suck to have to put on a harness just to go to the grocery store.

nah. I just wanna keep the regular seatbelts. I don't need them because I don't plan on racing anyone. The only reson I want racing seats is because of the feel.

well im just saying, ripping out the old ones and replacing them with factory black ones would be a lot harder than getting racing seats with belts. besides, racing seats look sick anyways.

if you have any auto stores around you i no some places sell replacment belts you can get for cheap, and if you have a scrap yard near you have you thought about mabey replacing the dash with a civic that has a black dash, i think it would look alot better then paint or die..heres a civic with the dash painted black and i think it looks really "cheap" and bad compaired to a stock black dash

looks to me like he just did a **** poor job.. I know I've seen a pic (i thought it was here at HCF) that showed someone who'd dyed their dash black and it looked amazing. I'll have to dig that up

I have a 98 LX that come with the God awful tan interior. I really want a black interior.
i feel your pain. my 01 has the same nasty brown color, and i'm planning to change it all to black eventually. i just can't decide if i'm going to paint the interior or wait a couple years for the 7th gens to show up in salvage yards. i think i may actually look into using leather on the seats, but that's if i can afford it with school and car payments. [:@]


aren't there matte paints for the interior? i hate shiny interiors unless it's gleaming from being cleaned.
