Panda style 2.0
Well I've been working on the inside of my xB the last couple days. I didn't really care for the purple that I had in there the first time, it was to dark. So, had to upgrade from Prince to Panda 2.0!!!!!
I still have the door inserts to do, and fix the trunk a little bit cuz it's a little off centered and it's aggravating me!
Everywhere that I could get it is done with White Leather, the bottom of the center console, door handles, AC plate, steering wheel, shift ****, and radio surrounding is all paint. Still have to do my gauge plate, but I'm waiting on my new gauges to come in so I only have to take it out once. Gonna paint that black.
Previously done is the C pillars and Headliner in black suede.

i like everything but the pillars. you should have left those in black suede. it seems to stand out too much to my eyes. definately cool.
and good job on the roof! it's a mod i've always wanted but have been too scared to do.

Thanks guys!
Headliner wasn't bad at all. I actually did everything by myself as no one was around to help out when I needed it. But yes, I think I used like 5-6 cans of the Heavy grade spray adhesive. There's one little spot that didn't stick that I didn't notice until I had it installed back in the car, but with it being black, you can't see it until someone points it out. That's the only spot that's messed up and it's not getting any worse if that's what you were wondering redline8k.
As for being hired, I'll do it for you if you get the stuff, but you pretty far away from Louisiana don't you think? Lol!
The reason I did the white a and b pillars and the black on the c pillars is to reverse match the outside. Now if you notice, the outside is all white with black accents, and the inside is all black with white accents. I painted everything on the headliner, ie. lights, handles, black, but I'm thinking of taking them back out and redoing them white too.

i know exactly what you're trying to do, but i'm kind of a less is more type modder. for my taste, it's too much contrast, but since you had purple before i guess that's your style! if you like it, then that's all that matters. either way, it looks very well done.
i plan on having all the silver trim and pillars painted in gloss black and having the roof, seats, and door panels done in black suede. hopefully one day i'll be able to make a thread like this one with pics of my interior. right now it's ultra stock and a little boring.
btw, did you use a spray can or a paint gun?

randomsuper, I used the spray can
jimmbomb, I'm currently waiting on one to come in from LEDmod.com. It's going to be all white with black numbers. They LED's behind the gauges are already changed to white, so the numbers are actually lighting up yellow right now. I thought it would have been here this week cuz I ordered it 3 weeks ago.

Thanks!
Updated first post with another pic of my engine bay. I got my overlays in from Randode finally so I just put them on. Gonna paint my exhaust cover black and my intake white in the future and get some white wire loom to cover my purple wires since I can't find any white wires.

That is a trip, and I agree that is cleeeeean. Killer job!
On the white pillars, I gotta respectfully disagree with Randomsuper, for a Panda theme, it makes perfect sense and completes the whole feel, I dig it.
Agreed with jimmbomb, the amber on the gauges kind of detracts from the goal. I'm excited for your new LEDMod package to come in.
Oh yea, the sas/scuba tubes in the trunk make it look like your xB's a submarine too, niiiice heheh
