Oh, and you need to bake the headlights and black them out too, as well as tinting the mirror turn signals.

Since you've gone all the way with the matte black paint, you might as well finish that last 5%.

I have an explanation for the bright red lights. 1. Im scared of the dark. 2. Im still in the werks. 3. well here....




Man I tried blacking out the whole interior but I couldnt hang... Sorry
Your XB looks clean...in a dirty way ... I was wondering who did your interior? Is that suede? I'm in SoCal and have an RS 6.0 and would love doin sumthin like this. Ballpark price & shop would be appreciated. Thanks

I did my interior myself. Search the forums theres a ton of great DIY stuff here. Ball park price $100 with the adhesive. The material is micro suede (I think) Either way go to JoAnns Fabric with a coupon. You can be like me and change it when ever you want.

Everyone recomends that 3m 90 stuff. I think it over rated IMO. but its easy to find. I recomend that stuff that raamaudio sells that stuff is good ish.


and a hot glue gun.

Thanks! Does it hold up pretty well or do you have to re-glue it a lot.

no such thing as re gluing once its on there and you missed a spot you f* up. Put it over the stock headliner. This is my 2nd one. My 1st one I did it with that ostrich vinyl and it was super heavy so it was good at 1st then if it ever hits like 90 degrees it started to bubble. so I went w the lighter micro suede. I really recomend spandex or something stretchable cuz even the micro suede wasnt forgiving.



Good Luck

Get good scissors
4 cans of adhesive
hot glue gun.
sharp blades
and a bottle of Hennessy
