the interior of the car was just about all tan. now everything that is black is what i painted this weekend. i also got curious and made a mock-up with card board of the back hatch area. i then went to lowes and bought particle board along with some black carpet. after everything was fitted as good as i could get it i stapled the carpet to the particle board for and ending result of a nice looking hatch tray. check it out!

looks good mayne....i like the hatch tray too!!
Looks good but it i have to admit, it looks a little too shiny like its been greased up with armorall.
What paint did you use? How did you prep it?
i was thinking of doing the same to the hatch area because the 93 don't have the board and everything you put falls through. good work. i would've used semi-gloss or flat black. as long as it doesn't flake, you should be fine
the funny thing about that is that i have used this paint for other parts of the interior like the center console and have had no problems with chipping. i would only really worry about chipping the surface was soft to the touch or compressable. everything i used it on was hard. that paint is an outdoor paint for items that have weathered or faded and is made to be used on plastics.
Thanks man, I think that I have seen your white one rolling around Tinker AFB. Here are some pics of my fox girls. Honk if you see one of them on base.
Should have used a semi-gloss/low-gloss paint.
Damn I need a driveway like that!
I might be able to store all my cars and projects ('67 Coupe, '86 Convert, '93 Cobra, '95 GT, '88 RX-7, Wife's '03 Turbo S Bug, and a '71 Bug) including my trailer if I had a driveway & garage like that... Guess that's what I get for being poor and living in Cali.
Oh wait I just have too many cars, and I still need a truck!!!
Craig, Nice Collection!
BP, Paint looks good... Just alittle shiny for me, however that might just be the flash... I would also keep an eye out for chipping, but it sounds like you got something specific for plastic which might work in your favor.
