Default Full Interior Swap

Hey guys,

So a good freind of mine is selling his s2000 that he inherited from his uncle. He has given me dibs. Its not in the best shape, but I am going to buy it as a parts car/ potentially re sell it after Im done with it.

It has all red interior, a new diff, a new tranny with stage 2 act clutch and lightweight flywheel, and new softop.

How serendipitous is it that these are all things I need.

Is anyone up for the task of swapping the interior of the cars, as well as the soft tops? Potentially more... like the differentials and tranny.

Please PM Me.

If your aren't up to the task to pull apart the car, then maybe reconsider buying it. Unless your getting it at a ridiculous price.

You can make money if your willing to do the work however if you need someone to pull out the interior for you, then I'll assume removing items like engine parts and engine/tranny/diff will be beyond your comfort zone

My .02 cents

I wouldn't mind the diff and Flywheel, however if I need to do all the work I would want it for next to nothing.

yeah it seems after speaking to several people I have decided not to undertake the interior swap. Way too much work.

I am still going to consider the soft top / diff and tranny.

I've done my interior swap on my first GPW twice. Tan to black to red.

It's extremely easy and with 2 people, it will be done in less than an hour per car.

Definitely a weekend project +. Wish I could help but long distance relationships are difficult.

I'd be interested in the all red interior or at least parts of it.

Yes, it's the dash and carpet that make for an arduous project. Most other interior peices swap with little effort.

How about "toning down" the all blue interior with some black pieces if the all blue is too much?
