Need help with interior mod ideas

joeybosco · 04-14-2013, 11:33 PM

I'm all about interior when it comes to cars and don't get me wrong, I love the interior in my z but I want to add something to make it more unique and what not. I'm not into huge speakers and I can't afford to swap out my seats and I planned on doing all the labor work myself. Also I don't want to spend hundreds of dollars on obscure carbon fiber parts because that adds up.

So if you guys could please influence me with some of your interior mods with links to where I am buy them, that would be a great help!

Thanks

If you don't have nav, possibly upgrade your head unit

clazzio seat covers if you have the base seats.

other than maybe a GT-R start button, leave it alone.

If you don't do seats, speakers, wrapping or radio there isn't much. Maybe an alcantara wheel. You could also color the stitching around the cabin with a marker. Some people also get LED interior lights. Makes them really bright, also different colors.

What kind of marker?

Stitch dye? Anyone brave enough to try?

Not yet, there isn't. You could be the first!

So I decided to buy the fabric pen today and worked on the interior for a half hour to start off which was a nice inexpensive extra, here are some pics.. (The dome lights I had bought a long time ago I just wanted to add them in)

I meant full aftermarket, I have the Avic Z-140bh installed in mine and I love it. I was interested in the Navigation portion of it but figured why not get one with Nav, Dvd, Cd, Bluetooth calls/music, Hd radio, Sd Card functionality, and 30 pin usb to iphone compatibility for full touch screen controls. A great investment because if you were to even install aftermarket audio components your already one step ahead.

But if you were looking to saving money and not into changing too much of the interior stuff then maybe just skip to better audio equipment like a sub or amp.
