You could probally try to dye it yourself. It would be more work but probally be cheaper to do. You could probaly use fabric dye.

Use Vynil dye on the vynil parts and plastic paint on the plastic parts. Cheaper then buying all new stuff especailly cheaper then buying it all from the stealer-ship

I did the full job on my civic. Took about a week and a few days. Although I changed carpet and roof (including sunroof = huge *****). I used paint from Napa, total cost of paint @ $9 per bottle was around $140 max. The carpet from accmats.com was $130, and the roof material was inexpensive, I am drawing a blank on the material I used.

I ripped out EVERYTHING: Entire dash, entire sunroof setup, seatbelts (Which I painted).... It's quite the job, but its really quite fun.

You can handle the job, make sure you get the proper advice before jumping into it. I would not reccomend getting the parts from honda. You'll spend close to $1000

Did you just rip the roof off? What about the padding material? I wanted to redo my interior too.
