    Interior Change/Swap Out

    Hi Folks,

    Wanted to understand how realistic this could be... Found a local car sale with "camel" interior as he puts it. I am interested in the car, it has everything I'm looking for, however I don't see myself looking at the interior everyday for the next 5 years or so.

    My question is what type of budget is expected for an interior change out for (used) alcantara or black leather? I would be capable of doing all the work myself so the labor expense is nearly $0 on my end.

    I believe it would require.
    Rocker Moldings
    Doors
    Carpet
    Seats
    Dash
    ...?

    Also, are there enough interior parts floating around for a job like this? My patience could possibly last 1 year.

    Thanks for any advice.

    You can do the interior stuff yourself. DIY dye it.

    It's not the car you drive, it's how you drive it.
