Here's the plan:
I want to convert my interior to 100% black. (like most fox owners. LoL) but, I would like to do this the cheapest way possible.
I have Corbeau seats, and I plan on doing a rear seat delete, so seat covers are not needed. From what I can think, all I would need is:
Floor Carpet
Rear Seat Delete Carpet
Headliner
Sun Visors
Interior Panels ( would probably have to die most of them)
My Corbeau's are the grey cloth now, but I want to get them redone with all black, silver stitching, and a red Corbeau Logo.
I'm still saving up for this project, but I would like to get a list of all the stuff I'll need. So any pointers? Suggestions?
Thanks!

I have a set of black visors that have the mirror, they don't have the flap though. Other then that they are perfect. They were in my car when I bought it. But my friend had a set with the flaps, so I changed them out.

So they aren't the lit mirrors then?

Might have to take them off your hands for ya when the time comes.

Yes they are the lighted mirrors, the bulbs are burnt out, since someone removed the flaps in my cars earlier years. The flap pushes the little button in when closed to shut off the light. So since they removed the flaps, the can't be used a lighted mirrors anymore.:thumbsdown1:
LMK, when you get ready, I'll snap some pics of them. They have just been stored safely for the last 2 1/2 years. I almost threw them away.:yes1:

I have access to a complete black interior if you'd like. It's only a couple hours from you, and it's from someone you likely remember to boot. Drop a pm , or call me if you need to get in touch. BTW, I think he can EVERYTHING for under $500 if I'm not mistaken, and maybe less for you...:thumbsup1:
haha... taken from someone who swapped a car from red to grey, im glad i bought a whole 4cyl.
grey 4cyl: $500
gas to get it: $50
sold it for $450 with the red interior just thrown in boxes. theres so much little stuff you dont even think of...

Dont wait too long ( not trying to rush ya ) because he tends to sell stuff fast. If you need me to talk to him about holding it for a deposit let me know. I have to send him some money for a 3G anyway, so I could send extra for you if need be as long as he's OK with that...

Not trying to rush him, but this is for a hatch correct? I know someone looking for a complete black interior also, and that is a great price.:yes1:

i highly recommend painting as little as possible. i tried it some and although i prepped it and it looked great. if you ever scratch it will just show. i am in the process of converting over now and its takes time unless you are lucky like some of the other gusy and find a 4cyl w/ all black. i can vouch for our sponsor www.foxmustangrestoration.com i got several things from them and they all look, fit great. they are easy to work with and ship out fast.

yea they are definatly on my list. I just wish the door panels weren't so expensive! Thats really the only thing from keeping me starting the job, because the headliner and rear-seat Delete I'll be doing my self with my painter, and the carpet is cheap. But the doorpanels are just so much! Everything else is leg work finding all the other interior parts. LoL

not sure if it helps but they do offer a discount. and i got mine w/o the map pockets, i always hated them. so they took off some of the price and i got them quicker.

oo good point! Cause I wouldn't want the map pockets either. Just more places for dirt to get. I'll have to look into that and see what the price difference is.

i think mine was about 50 less w/o the map pockets. i mean we all know they never looked good and were pointless for use. just like the map light i deleted when i got my new headliner. i put in the 94+ dome light w/ the side directionals much better to use.

wow I never even thought about getting rid of that! not a bad idea!! I might just have to get rid of it all together lol cause I've NEVER used that map light at all.

how did you delete it out of the headliner? Just covered the whole, and didn't cut the material out of it?

exactly, just put some good tape over the hole and cutout a piece of cardboard. that will keep it from leaning in. it def looks alot better.
