plastic color. headliner color
What color should I do the new plastics and headliner? I would leave some plastics the color they are now, and some a different color, the door panels and seats will stay the same color.
Edit
You have to remember finding an exzact replica of the paint for the plastics is going to be hard, and no one seems to have my color plastics. Even the headliner will be tough to get close since im just ordering the fabric.

white/off-white vinyl and plastic dye to make your existing plastics look good again should be available at most any parts store and certainly any place that does interior restorations. the cloth to refinish the headliner will also be available.
i say keep the existing colors. it is a very good looking and uncommon interior.

Have you even gone to a autopaint shop and looked into SEM interior dyes? They should have a color chart of all available colors, just bring a small peice, like a kick panel in and see if it matches up to a color listed, im pretty sure they'll have something very close. Dont go half-chaning interior colors, it wont look right.

I'm with Tim. Leave it alone. Your interior looks nice. I think you'd be foolish to change it.
Get the car running and worry about it later.

they are available in spray cans. you just follow the surface prep instructions and then spray it on in light, even coats until you have the uniform color you want.

I say you keep the current color. I still have yet to see a picture or any comments from you that says why you are trying to redo the whole interior. Looks like it's in really nice shape from the pics you posted.....

the rear plastic panels are ****, they are pealed, and faded, they crumble when you touch them, and the headliner was falling down, so i removed it and will be recovered as soon as i can find headliner material the right color.
