Wondering how well this stands up to the test of time...

GREAT idea and write-up, but I'm just worried about scratches...

I think i personally would just do my a-pillars. Im not to fond of all black on any car. To depressing. To me its like your ashamed of what you drive. To each their own but nice evo

i've done the a and c pillars. the color you chose is PERFECT. I might go back and redo mine that color. where did you get the paint?

and i kinda wanna do everything black, including, GASP, the headliner, but i'm scared to paint that cause i think it'll look globby or flake off....

I'm going to eventually do everything, but for the headliner and seats, i'll probally get the headliner re-done in black and dye the seats.

No scratches, fading, nicks or anything yet.

I'm pretty much done now, I just need to pull all the pillars again and take the headliner to an upholstry shop and have them wrap it in something black. Maybe Wed. since I'm off, and the car will be down for breaks anyway...

So far I've done:
A/B/C pillars
Radio surround
Foglight surround
Clock/passenger AC piece
Shifter surround
Ashtray

Looks great, pics later this week.



Thanks Sleet!
