Interior paint??

ok i am just wondering has anyone here ever painted their seats with the dupli-color interior paint, b/c i painted my doors and they came out great so i was thinking of just painting just the middle of all my seats not the entire thing. Just for now until i get a custom interior. Well any ideas ,pros,cons would be greatly appricated.

I have to agree with whiteracer. I wouldn't paint the seats....ever. Painting seats = a bad idea, lol.

That was my thought too, and why I didn't suggest it. If you really can't stand the farbic on the seats, have them re-wrapped, or if you know how to, try it yourself.

Although I have near re-wrapped a seat on my own, I know how it is done. The process is the same, regardless of the material...leather, suede, vinyl, etc...the process to re-wrap is all the same.

Okay...well...hmm..maybe you should have STATED THAT in the first post instead of
"has anyone re-wrapped there own seats with something other than vinyl such as neoprene, microsuede or micro fiber?? cuz i'm interested in those materials not cheap vinyl. any one?
Luke."
Weren't very clear in that post there were ya? I answered the fricken question you asked. You want a different question answered? TheN ask it. But don't get snippy and say shit like "no crap..." when you didn't even ask that in the first place. If you'd ASK THAT...I WOULD HAVE ANSWERED THAT.

Re: Interior paint??

Well I would, but getting my seats rewrapped would be cheaper would it not?

Guess I'm one of the few people anymore who would save up for 1 quality mod than add a bunch of little fake ones. Leave your seat stock man.

Re: Interior paint??

Dont hate, I got the cash for racing seats, but i was just thinking i'd go for a diff look. Racing seats may not look very good in a B2200
