Default Interior parts

Does anyone know of any sites that sell interior panel replacement parts in color? For instance, I may be purchasing a C7 with black interior, but I really want red. The price is so good that I don't mind settling for black, but I've been looking around and can't really find anything that has red interior parts to convert it over from black to red (dash, doors, glovebox, center console, handles, etc).

Anyone know of any sites?

Thanks

Forum vendor trunk monkey has pretty good prices and sells everything you'd probably want to change out on the interior, in all the oem colors, including seats.

Yep, CULTRAG, Trunk Monkey, GM Parts Direct, etc. Check all of them for pricing, as some will be cheaper sometimes, then the others will be cheaper at different times. I have ordered from all three I mentioned, and received great service from all.

I have found that the closer the vendor is to your location, the cheaper the shipping on some items. Makes sense.

^^^Agree. Pay close attention to shipping costs. You might find a really good price on the actual parts, but the shipping will be 3 times that of others and negate the low cost of the parts.

So true, one vendors price to ship a part that weighed less than 5 lbs was 78 bucks. One closer to me charged 20. The part was the same price at both.

I did everything you are asking about but with Kalahari color. Ordered everything from Cultrag. Top notch service on all OEM GM parts:

Red interior parts seem to be the most expensive. I used the dealer and an auto upholstery shop to replace some of my interior parts. As info, the door arm rests are molded into the door panel and to replace them you will have to replace the entire door panel which is $$$.

This is what I did; I had the Red seats but wanted more for the dash and door. The beginning is what they did for my car and you'll see what they do for seats at the end.

Great info here guys. Thanks. It seems like it's going to be really expensive and time consuming to convert black over to red, so I may end up just waiting for the right deal to come along with an interior that is already red.

Its not hard at all. Took me about 2 hours total. And if I had know what I was doing, I could do it in 1 hr. Less than $1000.

Do you still happen to have the part numbers for all the red parts you used?

No, but if you call trunk monkey or Gene Culley they will take care of you.
