Well your best bet would be to find a wrecked shell and take all the good black interior out and swap it over. The hardest part will be the dash but if you have the Factory service manual it is really pretty easy. Just take care not to damage too many clips cause the dealer is the only place to get them and they add up. Most people I know have paid around 2-500 for the entire change over, plus you will prolly be able to re coup some of the money selling you old stuff.

i got teh brown = poo

definteily worth it, probelm is it is REALLY hard to find a full black coupe interior, so im goin grey, plus its MaD JdM y0!.


Anyway yes brown blows, change it but do it the right way by buying a new interior, not painting it or some other ghetto-fab way.

There is a black dash on ebay , search 'civic si dash'

also a guy here on H-T has a full coupe interior, i will try to get his pm name

I had all gray.

I'm in process of changing the following to black"
Carpet
Dash, center console (integra)
Headliner
Pillars
Seats (S2k) eventually
Seatbelts
Think that's it. Carpet is in, dash is almost in. Headliner and pillars are painted black.

I had that ghetto tan interior in my 93 coupe, and every day for two years I got in it telling myself one of these dayz Im gonna change to black, it made me sick. I bought mine from some guy here on honda-tech for 350.00 for everything and he even through in a gsr steering wheel. IT LOOKS 500 times better! ps dash is not that hard just take your time when putting it back in as to fasten all of the screws or your **** will rattle or buzzzzzzzz.
