The custom speaker covers turned out well.
Big day. After 7 months of hard work, the dash is finally back in. I still need to add the components – such as the extra gauges and the MP3 player. But it is satisfying to see this interior come together. FINALLY.
I have re-attached the Fiero seat brackets. They are ready to go back in the car after being out almost 3 years!! I also sandblasted the seat bolts – they were a bit too “rusty” for the new interior.
Today I began the installation of the Fiero Store carpet I purchased over 4.5 years ago. It’s over-sized, so I need to trim down the edges. Exciting!
I re-used the original grille for the front window vent on the PISA dash. I cut off all the mounting tabs, sandblasted the old paint off, then I put on a fresh coat of black paint to match the rest of the interior. An epoxy based adhesive was used to attach the grille to the …
The final coat of rubberized paint was applied to the floor pan (driver and passenger) before carpet installation.
Painting, painting, and more painting. It is really amazing how many pieces you have to paint when you are changing the colour of the interior.
The interior pieces came back from upholstery, and all I can say is WOW. I can’t wait to get these installed! The pictures don’t do them justice.
I began painting the interior pieces for the Fiero. I used the Dupli-color plastic adhesive first, then a coat of matte-black Tremclad. I’m using the same recipe that I tested here.
