welcome to the site. as for your painting the interior i have used duplicolors vinyl and fabric dye and have had great results. its all in the prep work. SEM also makes a good product. once all my interior is done ill post some pics for you. complete transformation from puke green to flat black 8)

i just dyed the upper door panels for my gp. it dried for 2 days and it did the carpet part really nice which i kinda wasnt expecting. just do the prep work right and spray several light even coats. it flows out nice and flexes with the soft parts. i was impressed
