Fantastic work mate, looks brilliant so far! Same color scheme as mine, except mine's a bit more of a cream/ivory colour.
Would you be able to list the primers and paints you used? And your method? Mine have cracked a bit, so need to re-do a fair bit of the interior. Thanks |

Thanks Hey mate, thanks for the complements! the Primers i used is some cheap stuff from Repco Paints and dyes are all the VHT brand, (Satin black dye, Buckskin tan dye, Black paint) pretty much i cleaned everything with a steam cleaner and then prepwash. done very small light coats; for example done one light spray waited for 1hr and done another. i had some trouble with the center console due to me not cleaning some parts properly but so far other then that there has been no flaking. so fingers crossed with time Cheers Jason |

Awesome job mate. Im doing the exact same in my XH.
Just put my carpet in the other day. What are you doing to the trim before you dye it? All I used was wax and grease remover and it came up a treat. I only went for black as I was just happy to get rid of the grey. (still gotta do my dash pad) Its such a great mod for very little money and makes a world of difference. I think a lot of people will be catching on. Maybe I should do a thread on mine. Heres a comparison |

That looks good so far mate.... when I first saw the start picture I thought eh it's going to look tacky. Though I am surprised at how well its turned out so far, keen to see it all done with the seats back in. Keep up the good work
