tan to black...so NICE
Was kind of sick of my old crappy tan interior. The was previousely in a scrap yard, so the interior wasn't in great shape
old int pic
biggest of removal is done
new black int...came from car part 91 z28
Now im only missig the top and the front carpet...it dosent look that bad with the tan floor. I had to mod some part since my car is an 86 but overall its great.

Re: tan to black...so NICE
It looks great and as Jim85 noted with the carpet will look really sharp.Nice seats are hard to come by and looks like you did very well.Did your car already have the driver's side latch for the rear seat back?Having a guide with your parts car right there had to be a big help.
And saying this even though my '83's interior is camel tan and I would change her.

Re: tan to black...so NICE
I agree, looks very nice, but it will look 10x better when you actually get the black carpet in there. I did the same swap in my Trans Am, tan to all black (plus a 4th gen center console). And when I put the black carpet, that did it. It will make a HUGE difference

Re: tan to black...so NICE
I think it looked better before- it looked to be in good shape and the tan on black combo looks great.

Re: tan to black...so NICE
i had the same tan interior in my 87, except it was all run down like yours. those seats look really nice!
my mothers 86z28 has the medium doeskin, and it does look amazing when its mint. But, once they get high miles...look out.

Re: tan to black...so NICE
For those that have done it, how difficult is it to replace that front carpet? Does it require alot of parts being taken out for the swap? Is it something you can get done if a day?
Thanks Andrew

Re: tan to black...so NICE
I agree, that when I replaced my front carpet, it wasn't too bad. It took me maybe no more than 3hrs. You have to take all the bottom plastic trim from the kick panels, to the back seatbelt covers. And of course, the seats and center console. The fun part is having a couple of screws leftover when you're done that you don't know where they're from...

Re: tan to black...so NICE
cool swap man! Looks great! I started my gray to black in my 89 t/a I am changing seats to 4th gen and also the seatbelts..... I have black carpet I got for 40.00 both pieces.... I got a gray/black rear seat out of the salvage yard for 30.00 and sold my split seat backs for 30.00.... I am going to recover or replace my door panels and modify a console for drink tray and armrest in the back.... Keep up the good work on your car! It will be very rewarding and cool to drive in car cruises and such..... or that cruise down the highway!

Re: tan to black...so NICE
will do if the carpet is in good shape it will work. I did the first apply, the only thing is you will have to rince off then apply again. its a little pain but will save some cash. I saw the guy selling the front carpet on this site so I am going to get it, but I am keeping the rear section I did. here is a few pics
as you can see in 2 of the pics the front needs another coat
