    Been there done that... I'd buy the new "high use" parts in black and find used black pieces that aren't seen or used much like the hatch 1/4 panels (can be argued as highly used but you can find some minty ones still). I found some mint black parts for the 4 eye up here in Canada so I'm sure you can find what you need... spending 1500~2000 bucks on reproduction stuff is crazy and at the end of the day you still have cheap plastic imo (not knocking it, just saying)... When you can have a custom upholstered interior for a little more (maybe?)

    I'm not against painted interiors if they're done properly (good prep and high quality paint).

    Any idea how I would go about doing a custom interior like you mentioned? Would love to look at that course of action.

    aaaannnddd yeah... That looks fantastic! With my roll cage, it's going to be hard to achieve that level of clean on the interior, but a boy can dream, right? Thanks for the inspiration.

    I got crazy money for the black interior parts out of GT I stripped a couple years ago. Started looking around seeing what other people were getting, everything sold in about 2 weeks. Pretty sure I got around $1400, it was nuts.
