Ok time for another update since i have done a bunch more work to it recently.

Since i am waiting still on my motor guy to get my motor back to me i went ahead and started working on the interior color change. The car is a CX so it has all blue interior well thats just not going to cut it so i went and bought 6 cans of SEM coat satin black and started going to town.

So far i have the whole rear of the car, A pilliars, headliner and visors done. Still have to do the dash and door panels and center console stuff, plus install the carpet pad and padding but i still have to get that. Also since i am more concerned with making this thing good looking and don't want to rattle my brains while going on 3 hr cruises i went ahead and sound deadened all the rear panels using dynamat extream and rubberized undercoat behind all panels and now on with the pics.

What it looked like when i started

cleaned up

Rubberized undercoated

now laying down black paint

ok here are pics of the headliner ,visors and apiller installed but the pictures suck due to the flash, they look 100% perfect with no tigerstripes in normal light but here you go you'll get the idea.

rear panels installed

obviously i am not done i still have a bunch of work to do and to finish reinstalling all the panels and covers but its comming along.

and since i have also been working on the Ebay also here are 2 pics after i have degreased, scrubed and repainted the steering rack and crossmember and also started the prep work for the wire tuck

thanks for looking chris
