is there such a thing as a black 93 up console?

here this is a direct match to our interior black. iv used it im my personal car-my sho- and i use it in many of the custom/restoration cars that i do at work. i used it in a fiat spyder on everything that was plastic, cause the interior was tan and he wanted black, you cant buy interior pieces for that car. and the sun hasnt done a bit of damage, fading, chalking to the finish. i did the car about 4 years ago and it still looks great.

the finish is a very nice eggshell shine. its not flat and its not gloss, its interior paint. just scuff the piece with a gray scotchbrite pad and clean with grease and wax remover. spray and let dry. and install.

Now is there any way to get the carpet to match. Also im trying to figure out a way to paint it without pulling everything out, is there a way to do that too?

The krylon dye SUCKS, but the Krylon plastic paint works great. It's only available in glossy though, but I'm sure you could coat it with some matte varnish to make it duller. I have played around with many and I mean MANY different black coatings for metal and plastic. I'm actually experimenting with finding a good 'duller' for the Krylon plastic paint, I think the stuff from the modeling store is gonna win. There's some new clear coming out that contains nylon, but there are warnings about using it with plastic.

As far as using dyes, I have never gotten the desired result from an aerosol. This is partially from hasty prep, and partially because you should never use an aerosol dye. If you want to recolor a carpet without removing it get a decent quality brush/spray on dye from a fabric store, homedepot/pepboys dyes aren't as good as the stuff that comes in a bottle. Dye is comparable to rust control - the non-aerosol stuff is always the best. Oh and also, if it was me I would not try to dye the carpet, order a replacement in the color you want.

I was talking with a Restoration Shop owner a while back about painting interior pieces, and he had a solution for getting the shineyness to go away. I guess if the pice you are painting is cold, and the can of paint itself is hot (IE sat in the sun for a few minutes), it'll flatten out the color. I may have it backwards, but Google should solve that. Never tried it, but figured it's worth a mention.
