first thing was to clean it... just we cleaned it at the wrong time and it got mouldy, so it all got stripped out and clean properly,

next thing was to paint the roof lining and door cards black, i read that they come out very hard and ruff but mine came out lovely, a small bit hard but who touches them Itwasntme
what they looked like before

WOuldnt have painted the door cards myself as you could probably dye them. Good to see you giving things a go though! Big Grin White and blue is definitely different. Especially in a red car!

yes once its resprayed it will look good. Why not spray it diablo to match the exterior? Two shades might be odd!
