Hey all, I've been doing the interior of my Malibu, and since original good condition Malibu parts are getting harder to find, I broadened my search and found some other G-body parts that fit them. I used a set of Cutlass rear panels, and the original insert from my Malibu. Painted them both Shadow Blue with SEM interior paint. I personally think it looks great. Here's a couple pieces, along with the rear panels. What does everyone else think about this?
For the rear panels, I started taping off the chrome trim, but because I made a mistake, I had to pull some tape off and the chrome came off with it. After seeing it was just gray metal, I just sprayed over it.
For the MCSS cluster and gauge overlay, the pin stripe was broken in the middle so instead of leaving it like that, I removed it and then taped off the black part, and sprayed the rest. There was really no possible way of saving the white letters from the headlight switch, so I also sprayed over them. Also going to do the same with the MC radio plate, and I'm also going to search around for a center console shift plate that came in MCSS's, the ones without the vinyl overlay.
