  • Changing a Partial White Interior to a Full White

    I always wanted a Full White Interior in my 2003 Whisper White, but only a Partial White was ever offered by Ford. To change the interior to Full, would involve making the appropriate portions of the door panels, dashboard, and the console white to match the seats. I wonder if anyone has done such a conversion with white or any other color? If so, please let me know. Thanks

    Not sure if it would work, but know they make dyes that will change the upholstery color.

      I have not done it on a retro Bird but have dyed interior on a 1964 Bird from a dark color to white and it turned out just great. I use Sem Products.

                Really like the IG seats. Would go well in a 007 as well.

                    If I had a white exterior my choice would be a red interior . But, to each his own .

                      That is what I would do, but each to their own

                          I like the examples of the white additions shown above. I guess a good upholstery shop is my next stop. Does the additional white represent new white leather, or a die job?

                              Use caution if you are changing to all white that it works with the exterior, Whisper White is not a very bright white and if you go with a bright white interior it would really clash. You don't get that as much with the partial white but it is still whiter than the outside.
