If you do one are you gunna still do the other eventually? Are you gunna do an all black interior? But to be honest i think it will be kinda odd looking having one done but not the other you know, but ill say do the dash first since its prolly the hardest part and you can go ahead and get it out of the way.
oh yea 2 to 3 hundred is pretty good for leather seats, the dealer told me 1500 dollars to put in leather covers. So if thats a limited time deal id jump on it.

^^^I agree dont do one if you dont plan on doing the other. It wouldnt look good at all. But IMO that interior you got looks fine and dandy the way it is

i think it looks fine the way it is.. i love my leather and ebony interior, dont get me wrong.. but with the auto, the tan gives it a classy, old timer feel.

do both but start with the seats

if you put the black dash / door panels etc right now, your tan seats will look even more horrible and out of place than they do right now

Are there any tan seats? I would think that would look better with the current dash and it would save you time and money.

Damn that interior is nasty as hell. I thought the neutral was bad. I say just start ripping the panels off and get some krylon fusion paint and start painting the hell out of them

I am wanting leather seats also but I have the gray interior and I feel that the black seats would just be to BOLD. I think you should try to find some leather tan seats to match your interior. I am currently looking for leather gray seats but they seem very hard to find at a cheap price.

Good luck!
