[XxGiRLaNT06xX]

That looks sooo much better! Great job. :D

[galant305]

yeah look better, nice job

[4g63lover]

flat black definitely better than flat red

[badmitsu]

Thanks! Only took me 31/2 hours to do it. I like it alot better, the black makes it look good when driving.

[badmitsu]

Radar detector, and not the entire interior, i might do a couple more pieces.

[IceDouTGaLanT]

[beam514]

dang 3.5 hours

i messed up on the radio bezel and have put off finishing it for a good month now :roll:

[badmitsu]

took me 31/2 to paint, took me about 4 to 41/2 all together. Took me like a day an a half the first time! Just wondering, how would ya'll color sections of the seat? I have leather. And, i'm thinking about painting the carpet black too. Any suggestions would be great!

[mrjaydeeone]

good job. looks much better

[beam514]

for the carpet I wouldn't paint or dye it as it would fade and spray paint is probably not safe to breath in all the time. So i would just buy that custom fit carpet and put that it. Someone posted a link to a company that makes it specifically for the galant but i don't remember where it is and don't feel like searchin right now

[ChiGalant]

i like it a lot, i might do mine black too... i dont like the wood look :) ......

ive never painted any internal pieces, is thier any special things i need to know?

[badmitsu]

i just spray really thin coats over and over till lit looks good.

[djflex167]

looking good bro, keep up the good work!!

[732Galant]

looks a shitload better, i did that in my old car, amazing what you can do with Patience and spray paint...

[AVERAGE]

Looks good. I plan on grabing a similar shift knob but was looking for one of the push down types and a nice boot.

[ShiZnitH]

Look great :D Not Santas car anymore :P
I might doint the same but with blue pearls innit 8) The same colour as the repaint of the car i had in mind :)

[Vahn55]

Looks like mine, minus the gloss. :P

[badmitsu]

Looks like mine, minus the gloss. :P

didn't really want it too shiny.

[racesnos]

looks really good. wasnt a big fan of the red, but i am a very big fan of this :D

[ShiZnitH]

Black is tha bomb 8) We like yes! But the LazyBoyGearStick is not so fine :P Dont know why :?

[Jeffylou87]

Good Job..

[badmitsu]

Black is tha bomb 8) We like yes! But the LazyBoyGearStick is not so fine :P Dont know why :?

whats wrong with my shifter?? I'm 6' 3" so need something little long.

I have another one but its to short and i dont like it!

[ShiZnitH]

okelydokely :wink: As long as its comfortable to drive :wink: A freind of mine made the auto look like an manual shifter :lol: Just used the gearknob and the clothing around it or whats its called. Any other plans for the interior?

[badmitsu]

lot of plans and not enough $$$ lol

But, i would like to:

get new carpet (black)
Black/Grey racing seats
Black steering wheel
Gonna put a bag on the shifter
maybe some gauges

And i gotta get a new cd player, superfast!!

[ShiZnitH]

Ive ordered some stuff from Momo italy to match the steering wheel, i ordered a gearknob and its a month since ive ordered it and the momo alcantara floor mats cant i get before next year or sumething :cry:

[badmitsu]

damn!!

[ShiZnitH]

Japp. Not quality service but I just gotta have it from Momo!

[komodo]

Nice I like it! Do you plan on getting the entire interior black?

Radar detector, and not the entire interior, i might do a couple more pieces.

I was thinking that.. since my buddy had one too. His was pretty nice and was brand new. Don't really know how they work.. but he said the way his works was that it only sets off an alarm when a cop/truck is sending out scanning signals--which makes his detector 'undetectable'. Do all of them work that way?

Unfortunetely he got his confiscated by the cops and a fine of 300. Sad considering he bought it exactly a month before it off a friend for 250..

[badmitsu]

their legal in arkansas, they all work the same way, anything sending out a signal (cops/trucks/alarms on stores/other radar detector)will set it off.

[Distort]

Did you sand or prime anything before you painted it, or just painted right away?

[badmitsu]

just painted, turned out good both times!

[Kalamidad]

looks good. I like the black much better then the red you had.

[badmitsu]

thanks!

[Distort]

I'm painting mine right now... the paint I got is a little thick though... So I'm prolly gonna have to sand down my shifter bezel and redo it tomorrow..

[badmitsu]

kool, post up some pics!

[Distort]

Will be finished in the morning, post pics in the afternoon, still no camera... : (

[badmitsu]

*UPDATED*

the motor and got a few of it also. Got some new floor mats too!!

Looking better everyday!

[Trevs56]

man that engine looks like it just got dropped in off the assembly line. nice work

[Drucru22]

One quick question... ive just got finished painting my trim charcoal grey, and i was just wondering how you painted the air vents on the dash... did you just cover everything up and paint, or is there a way to take them off?

BTW, nice job w/your interior :)

[Distort]

Yeah man, there's clips on the top and the bottoms of the vents, take of the side covers to get to em with a small screwdriver, you gotta take off the radio bezel and drop the radio down to get to the vents with the hazard's switch in there.
