Interior Customization in Philly/King of Prussia Area?

Like most of us, I spend most of the time looking at the interior of my car. I would like to do some changes to it, mostly upgrade the cheaper-looking plastic stuff and add a touch of color-coordination here an there - maybe add a couple useful gauges. Can somebody recommend a good shop to do the install in the Philadelphia/King of Prussia area? Thanks!

not sure what youre looking for.. and upholsterer to redo fabrics.. do you want o paint interior panels (please no). as for gauges any performance shop can help you out with that..

as for upgrading cheap plastics, hate to break it to you but there is no way to change panels. you could cover them in suede.. but nobody can swap your dash panels for soft touch panels.

give us a better idea of what you want and we may be able to help. also you might get better responses for local shops in the regional section. we have a fairly decent sized group of guys in the philly area who im sure would be more than happy to help you out.

I'm thinking mostly changes to the dashboard/console - new dash pieces (CF/brushed aluminium?) - New gauges + changing the white lights of the climate control to red (LEDs?). Also changing the leather cover on the stick for a red-stitched one, that matches the Recaro seats - I saw that posted a while ago and looked really good. Ideas are welcome!

I was at the Philly auto show, and they were showing a Dodge Challenger with a full custom interior at the tuner salon. The guy let me behind the ropes to check it out, told me to call for a quote for work on the Evo. Maybe you want to give them a call:

vine st high end stereo is a bit of a hack shop if you dont get on top of them. i know from experience. they are good enough, but i wouldnt put them in charge of a anything beyond a basic stereo install.
