Hi everyone, To all the Solstice owners in the north, it looks like our winter may come to an end soon! I need anyones help with these questions.

I was planning to change the interior of my car. Red and black was what i had in mind for my black solstice. I was wondering how would i even go about changing my interior as i have no experience with that at all. i have the sand and grey interior. would i replacing my dash, door panels and seats or is there something somewhere i can buy to put over it? does anyone have any pictures of full interior mods or dash mods? is there another thread with all this info in? does JPM do full interior mods? any input would be great! thanks!

One of the sponsors- CarID, I think, sells dash trim kits, I noticed that they have black and red. But the kits only cover the "hard" parts, like the dash inlay, radio face, etc... not the bulk of the dash.

Just as long as you don't reupholster with baseball glove leather and leather stitching, that's my idea!

You can buy covers/trim/interior soft touch paint and install it yourself or take your car away and have it done to your specs at an interior shop.

If you farm out the work, take your car to Tijuana or Juarez. I can't remember which but an old boss of mine had his 280SL completely redone for pennies on the dollar. The work was awesome and factory fresh!

Blacksol 669- JPM can do anything. They did my whole interior (Dash, inner and outer doorpanels, Seats, consol and it turned out great. I would recommend them to anyone that wants quality and a look that doesn't look aftermarket. I would love to post some pictures but have no clue how? If any can give me the info I would love to show off JPMs work. -Bill-

Just an added thought, I removed all my interior and shipped it all to JPM and they did the work and shipped it all back with no dammage. To reinstall the whole interior took about 3 Hrs. Very easy.

JPM is the way to go, there is no one else doing this for our cars.

Joe has done both our cars. Beautiful custom work. He can do anything you want and is a true artist. He did lots of custom work on my console covers and doors. I just got my new door outers for the Punisher GXP and he did the PunisheR in the same font as the 3rd movie on the bottom of both doors. Very cool

Do a search for YAMATR3 member and you will find his car and pictures of his interior.

Not a solstice but the same idea and pretty close to what I'm after, the interior actually looks much better in person:
