2005 Colorado Interior Overhaul

Figured I'd post up what I've been working on all winter. It's still not 100% but should be in a few weeks. I did most of the work myself except for the headliner, painting the parts and the seat covers. My buddy Matt did the seat covers, Randy from my old shop finished prepping and painting the plastics and I took my Headliner to Casullo's. I kind of got transferred to a different shop halfway through getting the parts ready for paint or I would have done them myself also. It turned out pretty nice for my first time doing any interior work. Let me know what you think.

Almost finished, just need to put in the rear door panels, glove box, sill plates and some other small trim pieces. My daughter likes it.

nice updates man! I've been thinking about pullin the dash out of mine too and smoothing it but keeping it all black or silver again but painted. I am hopfully picking up an olds10 bench next week to get recovered like the 60's cars with some nice embroidery. I'll post some pics when I do mine too. Nice work! how tricky are these dashes to get out? My f/s wasn't too bad

the dash is pretty easy, just have to get every thing unplugged from it. The harness stays on the truck. Its basically just a plastic shell.
