That looks cool but it won't last forever. It will eventually get scratched. I wanted to do my door panels with plasti dip but I don't want it to get scratch and come off.

i used Krylon spray paint from wal-mart... (ima base and had tan interior to) about 3-4 bucks a can... just make sure what your gonna paint is clean, i didnt sand cuz i wanted the stock look.... but u can if u want too... also use clear (same brand) makes it pop, and wont scratch off as easy... i have pics if u wanna see.

I can get your interior trim pieces done, including your pillars. I can use ANY color and it will be automotive grade, meaning it will have a finish as durable as the paint on the exterior of your car

if you want to convert EVERYTHING to black get the pieces.
i painted my panels ALL OF THEM. and after a while it looked shitty. i found ebony door panels for the LS (crank windows manual locks) and im glad i got them. only one pair exist! than i got the 4 rear panels (coupe) glove box kick panels and under the steering wheel.

if i could of done it all over again i would of done it this way. but i really had no options because these ebony door panels werent available at the time i bought my recaro seats

That, I've seen some people use the Duplicolor Vinyl, Fabric spray paint, looks good from what I've seen.

Or maybe if they had a satin black. That might've matched a little better. But still looks good to me.
