tired of that ugly tan color in the cobalt?
i went and got everything priced at a fabric shop to get it all redone in black. they were gonna charge me over 200 dollars. so i took it upon myself to check out how i could go about doing this myself for it to be alittle cheaper. i ran across the fabric paint at autozone so i thought i would give it a try. turns out this stuff works awesome. after spraying some pieces i came to realized that it looked as if the parts came that color from the factory. ill post pics tomorrow for proof. i spent 30 dollars on 4 cans of flat black because it really takes alot, and you have to spray as even as you can. if you paint you know that flat colors are not very easy to spray out even. well i just had to share with you guys that i honestly think this 30 dollar mod is the best thing you can do for this car in a visual effect. so go buy some cans and go spray the hell out of your interior pieces and have some fun
