I'm a new Camry owner (97 XLE V6) and I want to do some mods. I want to start with the basics like tint, rims (hate the stock ones), and sound system. The car has a black exterior and has a beige interior with wood panel dash (uhhh!). I want to black out the inside and i was thinking of using using vinyl from RVinyl to change the dash and wrap the inside of the car to black but i don't know anything about the product. Does anyone know if they're good and if it'll last and not peel off a year later? The carpet and the headliner are also beige and I was wondering if anyone knew whether or not there was a way to dye it black so I wouldn't have to replace the whole interior. I might get a body kit off of ebay or an underbody spoiler kit (like the rare TRD).

Any help is appreciated,
Phil

they do have spray interior stain, they sell it at most auto parts. ive used it and never had aproblem but definatly want to get tint, the sun will bleach it out over time if u dont.

this is a list of avalible parts for the camry of all generations.

I was also thinking of wrapping the interior (dashboard, center console and all) in vinyl. Anyone know how hard it is to do that and whether or not I need to remove all parts to do it? Any info is appreciated.

Don't use vinyl, it won't stick well to the dash plus its going to be a hard job, because of the dash's shape. why not customize a cover something similar to a toyota dash trim, then make similar copies with different colors so that you can change it to different color depending on your mood. lolz. I think you can use fiber glass material for this.
