Re: My 2002 996 "renovation" thread

years ago I bought a wine red 911sc - it had a black interior but the dash was brown. weirdest thing - i had the dash dyed black and turned out excellent and held up to any scratching/etc.

highly recommend dying for interior color changes - wouldn't dye seats but everything else yes

I've always loved the Dino - W/"chairs and flares"

Ferrari dealership in Seattle is 5 blocks from my house - Drooled over a Dino 8 yrs ago - Beautiful perfect low mile example was $50K at the time. Wish I had the dough.
