Couple of things. First, it looks great, 1st class. Where to you get the carpet from and was it much to install? I am planning on changing mine from black to gray. You said you painted the door panels. what did you use? And not to sound to dumb, What is the breadbox?. Again really looks good.
Dakotaqc,
Thanks! I got the mass-backed carpet off eBay ($389, about $100 less than the main suppliers.) I used spray adhesive on some of the more vertical carpet panels. It came well molded and it mostly just dropped in place. I bought a quart of the correct color interior paint from Ecklers and shot it with a spraygun then covered that with a clearcoat. The breadbox is a large dashpad on the passenger side that your 90 doesn't have. Check the link in my post above to see a pic of the old one. Feel free to shoot me an email if you need more details.

The carpet is easy to install, it just pops right out. Mine was just tucked under in a few places, much easier than I thought it would be when I took mine out.

I can't wait to replace the interior in mine. That is, whenever I get my car back from the shop. :(

383 Stroker, what color are you going to do in yours? If you are thinking about changing the color, I think red would look pretty cool. JMHO. :cheers:

Re: Interior Redone! Pics inside... (GDP)
Actually, GDP, the stock color is red. However, with the pearl white paint with the gold/yellow flip it sort of looks weird. :crazy:
Anyway, I was leaning towards black. Unless someone can offer a color combination that will actually look great with that color scheme.
