Black Carpet... made easy

[Jand3rson]

Colored capet generally looks like ass. It's too much. Except OEM Cardinal :up:

Nope, I'm leaving the headliner as it is. Even the cars that came with black interiors still had tan headliners, the only cars that didn't were the M3 and the 318iS.

not true, my '90is came with gray headliner and carpet w/black interior.

Hm. Then it was optioned by the buyer at the time of the sale.

I have cardinal interior from an M3 in my 318is, with carpet and all.

Painted rear deck black, forgot which dye I used, not pleased at all though, however, I probably did it wrong.

I hate the tan headliner though. I think the interior would be much better off with black headliner, red interior in the alpine car....
thoughts?

Not sure, I have no real history on the car since the PO was lying POS. Got the factory option list here a while back though, so maybe someone can ID where that was optioned because I only see one option for Upholstery and it just specifies black.
