    Interior Retrofit on a Budget :)

    Hey there all , well as I bet many CB owners feel the same way as i do , sick and tired of their stained , scratched, and old interior. I decided to do a complete color change from that stained ugly tan to grey or black, but like many other people i know i dont really have a lot of cash to drop on a full reupholstery. So i guess what im gonna try and do is change the whole thing on a budget. So i was on craigslist the other day and found a pretty cool guy who was parting out his accord so i gave him a call and asked him how much he wanted for the the whole interior. 80 bucks he said and its all grey, as soon as i heard that i dont think i got outta the house fast enough with my tools to go and met him up. So he hooked me up with the whole thing for a cool 80 bucks minus the seats and headliner , so now i think that im just gonna swap evrything out and try and do this the best i can for under 300-400 dollars with new seats and all. Ill update pics whenever i can, but for now heres just some photos of the ugly tan with a whole lot of new grey goodies waiting to be installed.

                You're going to wish you got the headliner and seats. More like complete interior. Two-tone is ugly unless it was setup to be that way. In your case...I doubt it.

                It took me almost 2 years to complete my interior swap. Very hard to find grey interior for a ex coupe. Me and Jordan may have been the only true granada black accords with the complete grey interior swap.

                  If its done right, you can do a 2-tone.

                  And yeah, i wouldve gotten the seats. You can re-wrap the headliner yourself for the cost of the fabric from a store.

                    Yeah, its hard to find EX coupe grey interior.

                    I think we were the only 2 people to do it.

                      The only dumbasses willing to spend money to swap it in its entirety.

                      It paid off.

                        See i would have taken the headliner too , but the interior was out of a LX , and my 92 EX has a sunroof I love the sunroof , but i was just sad that i could'nt pull the whole thing. Plus I just got done rebuilding my dash , and I like the black dash a whole lot more than the grey one I just need to track down some grey seatbelts now too. So i was thinking bout some Corbeaus like these , or even an older model that has a similar sytle.



                        I think that these would look mighty sick in the front , and if I source a grey cloth rear it should be perfect. Lemmie know waht you guys think

                            Only for about a Month and half for me tho.

                            Thats about how long my car lasted once i got it on the road.

                            I WILL DO IT AGAIN.

                              Would you mind me asking how much you paid for everything (drivers & passenger) ? Also, did you fab up your own brackets or did you just get the model specific ones they have from Corbeau ?
