Default Help Painting Interior (not what you think)

Guys I am getting really tired of the color of all the interior panels, its like inbetween a dark grey and black but its to light and when I put the seats in its gonna look like ****.
So I was wondering, about painting all the panels with some of the krylon fusion, stuff or would yall recommend something else.

I just want black, not gloss, just like the oem ebony color. And then a black carpet or maybe slightly lighter with a black headliner. Ill just have to see how the black panels match the current headliner and carpet and go from there. What do you guys think about this?

I know one guy did it and its on his car domain which im trying to find right now, I think it wa contrastriker.

Im doing new door panels anyways, and Im gonna have the shitty OEM leather replaced with either black suede or nice black leather, and I could try it on the old ones as a test and check durability and see how well its sticks.

I'd like ot have them dyed but could I get the dash dyed?

I think black seats will look fine since you have a black leather steering wheel, shifter, door inserts (the plastic where the handle is) etc... from the factory.

If you disagree I would NOT paint the interior, I would (as I did to my car) just buy an ebony interior for it . They are usually only $300 for everything but the seats...

Everything you would need (headliner, carpet, plastic, seatbelts, etc...) Where do you live? I know people who part these cars out on both sides of the country...
