Honda Integra LS 1990 (Interior Questions)

Hey crew, I am new to the site and I am already loving it. I have learned alot so far but I am working out what I should do to my teg atm and have a few questions about the interior of my 1990 LS

This is my car atm

I am thinking about going black and silver or silver and blue. here are 2 pictures that I found of other guys that have done there cars and they rock the plannet. would really like to get black and silver setup the the 1st picture and need some help with what are good paints and how to go about adding leather and turning my car from it’s current blue to black and silver. Have a look and tell me what you think about it and get back to me about it.

Black leather and Silver

Silver and Blue

I hope you guys can help me and tell me if i should slowly do it myself of just take it and get it done by PRO’s for a llittle bit more $$$ then what i could do it for.

thanks guys

I can’t say much for the painting thing because I honestly like yours better than the other two. Simplicity speaks, IMO.

But I can say that if I had a RHD, I’d definetly have the JDM climate controls!!!

its not his choice to have digital climate control or not…its an aussie spec teg…not jdm…his controls are like a USDM RS

snowpanther (or anyone, I suppose) do you know what leather seats those are in the first picture?

I might be wrong, but I think those are RSX seats.

didnt they get stuck with SOHC d series engines too???

RSX seats… drool… i wish i could do that…

yes some australia tegs may have the sohc 1.6L ZC…even cheap base model jdm tegs have the sohc…denoted as DA5 chasis.

what would u pic… JDM da5 (sohc) or USDM da9… hard decision…

id rather take the DA5…low mileage, and you get rhd and all the jdm goodies…all thats left is swapping in a better motor

all aussie integra’s are LS’s and have the B18a engine :slight_smile: of course there are some jap imports with zc’s and b16’s… but all real aussie ones were b18a :slight_smile:

what color is your exterior? here’s a pic of my interior i did myself using krylon paint. im re-doing it though and using clear coat on top of it. I used dupli-color at first and then re-did it with krylon. i like krylon better i guess i dunno.

Painted interiors are just ugly… no disrespect to anyone

I think small ammounts of painting look good - the car with the RSX seats looks nice. My old car started life with the interior all one color, and it looked a lot better with a few of the trim pieces painted charcoal. I don’t like the interiors with lots of stuff painted very much.

If you have a blue interior and want to switch to black, the best way is probably to replace stuff instead of painting it. If you want leather seats it is probably easier to have someone reupholser your stock seats than to find someone selling leathers down there. Or you could get aftermarket seats. The carpet and soft parts of the dashboard can be painted, but I’m not sure how it would hold up to everyday use. The hard plastic can be painted with regular auto spray cans - that is how I did my old car and it was fine for years.

Yer ok thanks for getting the names of the chairs. :slight_smile: i am going 2 look into getting some. with the back seats I am going to get leather put on them I can get it done for $200 but i need to by the cow skins in the same color as the front leather seats and same quiltiy of leather. I might work on my center console after I complete this and try and make it silver and get new gear stick, handbrak and get the carpet up and change it to a nice black in the car. mainly want to get everything from that stock blue and make it black. I was thinking about putting check plated steal in the bottom of the car but it would be to hard 2 clean and sometimes doesn’t look to good.

If any of u guys have any idea’s for the material that was used on the side dores of the top picture please let me no because i will need to get that material to replace the current blue checked one that i currently have atm.

thanks I now you guys can help me out with this one and can’t wait to read your replyies

wow dude did you use vynil paint for the doors and glove? do u know what the color was called please get back to me the intirior looks hot

oh and did you use any kind of primer for the doors?

Some Integras that came with leather also had leather on the door panels in the places where cars with cloth seats have cloth. There is a teg tip somewhere on replacing the cloth with something else (think the tip used vinyl, but leather or other cloth should work.)

what factory stereo is in that first pic? i want i want. the silver accents don’t look bad and neither do the rsx seats.

my car engine is a DOHC 1.6l 4cly it isn’t SOHC.

here have a look @ my hole car.

also the sound system is stock with an equ on it and it isn’t that good im getting an alpine HU in a few weeks
