Black interior paint

[bdeitemeyer]

Honda didn't make a true "black" interior color for our accords. Classy Gray is the darkest tone. It's a charcoal that's nearly as dark as black, but not quite.

Replacing your OEM pieces with new ones is $$$. Doors and dash panels alone will easily cost more than $500 new from any Honda parts store. You'll save some money buying them used, but then the condition of the pieces comes into play. I'd recommend taking your time & painting the pieces yourself.

that's exactly with i'm going to do...but how about the area around the radio...you know the biece piece under the main dash area that has all the instruments and ac vents...that's made out of leather so I have no idea how to pain it

Yes.

It looks great so far! How long do you think its going to take for it all to get done?

I've been thinking for a while about doing something like this to my tan interior.

I don't like how I can see basically my entire interior from the front window of the car.

That takes some courage man, I don't know if i'd do it myself but I just might. The previous owner of my 'cord splattered some white paint on the dash and NOTHIN has been able to take it off. I might just paint over it now hmmm..

David, just an FYI......that Krylon Fusion Paint takes really well, just prep with some rubbing alcohol on a rag. I used satin black on all of my panels, and I found it to be too glossy, especially on the dash there was a lot of glare. I would suggest going with flat black all around or just flat on the dash and satin everywhere else.

Doing all the plastic parts in my car that I did, took me about six hours and six cans of paint. That stuff really work great.


For your headliner you're probably going to need 4-5 cans of that fabric paint. I used it on my seats in my Accord and they came out great. Just take your time.

If you're going to remove the headliner..... I would choose to wrap it in suede or the fabric of your choice over painting it...

good luck tho David. should be sweet!
