I've been thinking about getting my seat recovered in leather, but I would want to get them in black. How hard would be to change my interior color. I could buy new carpeting and fit it on the floor and headliner, and take out my sun roof lining that goes around parameter of the sun roof hool and spray paint it black. What about the mirror, dome light, and sun visors though? I'd really appriecate if anyone has any sugguestions. Thanks.

What color is your interior now? Ex: say you have a primarily gray interior, but your dash inserts, i.e. area surrounding the gauges and stereo, could be easily changed to black using a dash kit...well why not have the seats recovered with black down the center, but have them edged in gray, (or burgundy, or whatever your primary interior color may be), a typical look for racing seats, but would look great on your stock seats, too. It could really make your interior stand out...It is a compromise, but you wouldn't have to change much and it would work with what your car already has...here's a rough example: user posted image
