Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Modifications Aesthetics interior mods ???

What are some good interior mods to do? I want something to make my car stand out more inside it. Does anyone know what is good to change the interior color? Is it easy to use? Do you reccomend it? Thanks, I'm just trying to find ways to liven up the interior

I know there's something out there called a "Carbon Fiber Dash Kit". Sounds pretty cool. I think they also make wood dash kits. You could also consider leather seats, but that is mucho denero. Then there's accent items like shifter knobs (very easy and inexpensive) and racing pedals. And the much talked about white-face racing dials. Just a few suggestions.

I got a post identical to this check it out.there are a couple of ideas in there.I personally am thinking of what i could do with a can of spray paint...maybe if very careful color match some parts...But if i were to f*** up who knows how it would look.I think I might go down to a junkyard and see if any ideas pop in my head or If I can pick up some parts..just a thought though

i just got and installed the aluminum racing pedals from KKM yesterday. They were a real pain in the ass to put on, but they look really good, and are relatively inexpensive. I'd reccomend them.

thanks for the ideas!

I installed the Ractive Racing Pedals instead of the KKM ones. I've seen wayyyy too many Contours with those KKM pedals so I wanted something different. The Ractive pedals look great (better IMHO) and are adjustable for width and length (Length on the Go-pedal only).

Sorry, I'm in England now, so I can't scan any photos...

And if you have a newer style (98+) you can get an older style console to put in the car. They're great if you want to add in any stereo mods. They also give the driver their own "area", seperating the two front seats more.

Jason --

are you making these things or just selling them? if you have any info on where i can get a hand brake lever that will match my richbrook "titanium" shift knob, please let me know. the knob looks great, but accompanied by the brake lever and maybe door handles, that interior would look almost new!

titanium/silver accent ideas i have for those interested:

hand brake lever (with carbon "button")
door handles (where the lock is located)
lower door handles (where the long color-coded plastic handle is)
dash strip (where the clock/defrost buttons are on the right and where it continues on the left)

who has a machine shop???

I'm just selling these and quite a few other products. I haven't seen the brake handle that you describe, but I'll keep my eye out. I just got a new catalog today, so I'll take a look and let you know if I find anything good.
