Whats the best way to get a black interior for my 95 coupe? Paint? Or Swap? Whats easier?

 

buy it dont be cheap

 

Do what I did, found a 95 EG6 SI in the junkyard, ripped out every interior peice in the car, except the Roof Trim, cleaned it up a bit, and just swapped it out. Now you couldn't tell the difference inside my hatch to a Blac Si's Hatch, except for the fact that the roof trim is still Gray, but I like the 2-Tone look.

 

yeah i really dnt wanna be cheap but ive seen some painted ones n they look good n was jus looking into it, how much was it for ur whole interior? R they hard to find?

 

It wasn't hard to find in my junkyard, there is about 200 Honda/Acura's in it, so you usually always find what you are looking for, except 2Dr Power Windows >:-(

I paid about 75 Dollars for the entire interior. I think it was a good deal, not every junkyard charges the same though.

 

i have a dyed dash and carpet check my build thread
but other than that i picked up jdm sir-s interior which is all black tweed

 

I was going to say you could try getting some of that spray paint they use for plastic lawn furniture and that type of stuff and try it. I have no idea how it would end up turning out.

 

I used some of that Krylon Fusion on my console. Its too shiny and it scratches easily.

 

Thanx guys, now i jus gotta find a good junkyard in so cal cuz 75 bucks sounds peachy

 

Nice interior btw man, thanx for the info

 

I'm in the process of doing the same, its taking me forever to find all the right pieces.

We have *** down here for junkyards, dude wanted 50 for rear plastics.

If you find a good deal on whole car , get it.

 

What is the stock color of 95 civic black interior carpet?

 

Black.

I found a used oem on ebay, they have new ones on there but I think fitment is Meh

 

I found full black interior from an EG Civic at my local junkyard...I paid a little more, but I got the dash, door panels, rear panels, and hatch panels and they were all in really nice shape. The only thing I couldn't change out was the gas/trunk hatch release levers and the seat belts (the only black ones I found were in terrible shape and I'm not taking chances on dicey seat belts). If someone knows how to swap the gas/hatch release levers, I'm all ears though.

BTW, I thought all EG Civics had the grey headliner...the car I pulled my black interior from had a grey headliner.

Don't do paint...it looks way too shiny and it will scratch.

i wish i had junkyards that had ANY hondas around me.. There all american cars and Korean cars

 

thanks took me a while
if you cant find door panels soon ill possibly sell you mine
because i have plans on going power locks and windows
and then getting the jdm door panels to match my interior
but ya on some of that plastic spray stuff
dont go with the gloss black i made the mistake on a dash and was just like screw it so then i bought an already dyed dash that looks legit im guessing he went with the flat black so it didnt come out so gloss

 

I just bought new oem gas/trunk lever from Majestic...pretty cheap....they just slide off and a screw holds the bigger piece down..

Yeh...i think black int. had shimmer grey and others had clear grey...shimmer is a lil darker.

Imm looking for the A pillar and B piller pieces for my coupe now...i found everything else on eBay and such

 

Skip01,
So, just yank on the plastics and they'll come off (take the screw off of the bigger one?) Just want to be sure before I start yanking on them and screw stuff up.

i have found that if you log onto www.craigslist.org you can find pretty much anything. try looking there, it could be your best option.

 

You mean the parts on the left side floor of the drivers seat right?

The 2 handles slide forward off and the big piece has a small cover on it that you need to pry off and it reveals a screw....take that off and it comes off easy.

 

The best way is either to swap a full black interior, or sell your car and buy one that already has it.

 

Full of truth right there haha

 

lol, that's exactly what I did.

Had a white EG sedan... tan interior, auto transmission, DX (no power ANYTHING!), D15B7 crap engine... said "f-this" and started looking at 92-95 Civic EX coupes with black interiors. Then I decided on a del Sol instead... I have my black interior though, couldn't be happier.

I believe it's charcoal grey actually.

You can buy new black carpet from stockinteriors.com or on ebay. I bought mine for my del Sol from stock interiors.com. I spent an afternoon installing. It had to be trimmed and every hole had to be cut. It was well worth it though. Fitment was pretty decent. I got the mass-backing on my carpet, and I think without the mass backing it would have been a perfect fit (the mass backing makes it thicker and stiffer... harder to fit into place), but I like the mass backing.

 

whatever you do, don't paint the interior. You may ask why? I bought a 95 civic 4 door, the car used to be white, but is painted red, and all 4doors that are white come with stock tan/brown interior. Well the dude who had it before me, had the same question, should I paint? Or should I just find all the pieces? Now 4doors have tan,grey, or a maroon color for interior, greay being the top choice. He decides to go with a bunch of black paint. He took all interior pieces out and sprayed away. on top of that, he removed the brown panel clothes, and replaced it with some red silk. Not only did he break some pieces, but he forgot to screw in a few things as well. I say go with buying the pieces, and keep it oem. For the most part the dash and the door panels still look black with no scratched. But everything else is black/ brown from the paint chipping :-| . I have managed to change most of it, but I highly recommend buying the interior, its well worth it.

 

I have a 1994 2dr EX with black interior I want to part out...
