My interior really looks bad. I was wondering if there was a kit or something I could do to fix it. I know on the show Pimp my Ride they always change the interior, is this something pretty easy to do or is it pretty complicated?

the quick easy would be covers and mats.
Seat covers, dash covers, floor mats.
Interior swaps can range from so easy it is sick to hell no I don't want to do that.

Depending on the interior item in particular.

Sure its easy like on Pimp My Ride, just hand like 5 grand to a custom interior shop Seriously though, I'd start with renting a really good carpet cleaner from your local hardware store. They can make a world of difference.

Well the main thing that I want to replace is the mat that goes on my hood, its old and has thousands of tares. I know a junkyard one would be just as bad. A new one would actually be nice. I have cleaned the carpets good, but I thinking I want a new inside. I know this would probably involve new seat covers and painting the dash.

I can sell you some pretty good seats. They are tan cloth out of a 99, they have the leg extenders and both are powered. Then get some new carpet and simply paint the door panels. You could get an automotive upholstry shop to do you a new headliner and you would be good to go,
