1979 911 SC Interior Color Change

[csressler]

Does anyone have experience changing the color of the knee pad and other plastic trim pieces in a 911 interior? Specifically, I would like to dye the tan pieces in my interior black to match the dash face. What dye works best? Should I have an interior shop perform the work?

I believe most of trim pieces in an SC are vinyl. I think your best bet would be to use would be a vinyl paint. You can buy black vinyl paint in a rattle can at your local automative shop such as Pep Boys, Western Auto, Auto Zone, etc. Lowes and HD sell it also.

+1 on the vinyle
seats are going to show through eventually, because they flex so much but you'll get a couple years if you do them right ( there is leather paint also. brillo.)

I used Leatherique on mine anywhere there was something I couldn't change easily, so the B pillars, knee pads, and dash were on that list.

It's been a couple of years and has held up great so far.
