How long have you had the black interior paint on? How's it holding up to daily use?

Have had it over a year and a half and holding up really well. I used krylon fusion satin black.

I may copy you. I've been wanting to do something but wasn't sure if it would last. Thanks

And are you planning on blacking out the interior or just accent pieces.

Basically just two tone it. Gray and black. Just make sure ya clean off the pieces real good. I used dawn dish soap and after dryed it I used wind ex. Works great for me. I may get some fabric paint and paint the headliner black too. Still thinking on that. Lol

I think I'd try to find a black one. But I've never used fabric paint so I have no idea how it would turn out.

I've used it before on a classic Camaro headliner. Came out nice and way cheaper LOLOL.

Well finished replacing the plenum gasket last night. Wasn't too bad Cept the two back bolts you can't see and if ya have big hands forget about it LOLOL. Luckily my hands just fit barley lol. Goin have a nice bruise. I used silicon grease on hands so they could get under the metal. It worked. After that it was a cake walk. Then got to see egr ports and 4 of 6 were clogged solid closed. Read we're that can throw the lean code. So from my experience seafoam didn't help LOLOL. Took about 2 and a half hrs. Gt back together. And it's running just fine. No more hesitation or almost stalling when sitting at a light. It's only been one night so far but no CEL either. Will be giving it a good run today. So wish me luck lol.

Indeed, good luck. Glad to know that you may have resolved your issue. I'll attempt to look at my EGR and whatnot as well to prevent an issue like this.
