oh yeah, i've seen the interior of the interior Seriously, you'd be surprised the things we found when we traded carpets. I had enough money to go and buy booze when it was done and over with And even better, We've discovered that vert and hatch have different sized carpets

Thanks guys you rock. Lisa deserves half the credit too - she spent nearly 4 hours cleaning every tiny little thing while it was out and I just did all the disassembly/reassembly and of course the combination of parts mentally.
Thanks to all you, my friends, for finding rare parts, trading carpets etc etc etc. [Zero, Ripley, D-Man, Stetsonaw, Griffy etc].
Now I just gotta get dirty under that hood again and pull some more horses out

Zero - Notice the red pad on the carpet is getting redder now - no more brown cast to it. PS side is beautiful marlboro red.

half the credit? Dude, do you know what that carpet has been thru? The dude i bought it from NEVER put the top up; including minor rain showers. not to mention all the sh!t he's spilled in it, and oh my good ness. That's why i said to pressure wash it and then shampoo the damn thing. Fcuk cleaning that nasty carpet by hand. Why do you think i never cared if sh!t was on that carpet? Dude, I've yet to have a sinlge item on the floor sense the swap.

Lisa deserves ALOT for cleaning that nasty thing. I wouldn't even do it

the SS-III seats & black carpet really finished off the interior & made it so OEM fresh - looks so nice in person.
Lisa did such an amazing job cleaning that carpet, it looked brand new.
have you gotten the STRI gauges worked out yet? bummer that the X-Line are Orange - yuk

now just turn the boost controller a click & get up to 10-12psi ... i promise Elise will love the cooler weather

Orange is FTMFW... WTF are you talking about?!

^ not when the rest of the interior is red.

To-chey.

Or however you spell that word. Bottom line is you're right!

death your interior looks really familiar. I love it.

Nice job on it - and I'm glad you stuck with the black carpet idea over the dyed carpet idea. That might've been cool, but then again it might've looked like dog vomit. Kinda risky IMO. Everything looks sweet though, you must be very happy!!!

DEATH, your interior looks pretty damn good now, but just imagine putting in something like LilJoe has for the overkill sickness. Your car already has a badass look to it outside, why not transfer that inside?

I was gonna do something over the top with the red carpet but I rolled like that for a week and it grew the wrong way on me. I dig Joe's interior but that's his thing. Trust me - it looks aggressive enough at nightime with the gauges lit
Thanks again tho guys.

yes i agree i love the seats i want them too, im going red and black for me though since my car is red. lol
who knows my car may become your cars, bizzaro to superman thing lol

Hey... i may be dying his old carpet for myself

But i'm confident that with my talents and experience with the stuff... it wont look like "dog vomit"

Here you go...

Not the carpet- racing seats to replace those boring Celica seats and CF. Lots of CF.

That's sweet.

Wow, is that painted or leather wrapped? I think that is the only celica I've ever seen with coloured internals that actually looks good.

I think Death has in the bag. GriffGirl should about doing a calender with inteeriors for 2010. LoL. It'd be somethin totally different.

Cheers mate.
ALL those panels are painted.
I did everything myself (except recovering the seats).
It took, what felt like, an eternity to do - masking up, prepping, painting (several coats), etc.
Well worth it in the end and I was very pleased with the results.
I used the Foliatec line of products.

That's a really good idea to do a calendar featuring interiors! Maybe next year we can do it where it features exteriors but there's an inset (a little square in the corner or at the bottom of the month-grid page) that shows the interior of the car. Only challenge with this is interiors are kind of hard to photograph nicely... well that and people will have to actually clean out their cars! There's only so much photoshop can do!
