    You can paint it with vinyl and carpet paint that they sell at autozone or a car parts store, but I would recommend what a lot of us are doing and just find a car at the jy with black interior and swap it out.

      dude. my interior, on my accord project was f***ed. i havnt done it yet but jus rough up the panels with 800 grit so u can keep the original texture of the plastics. if u want smoothe hit with 400 grit.
      then use wax and grease remover in a lint free towel( if ur useing a micro fiber towel make sure to swipe the w&g remover in one direction to keep from pulling up fibers and leaving it on the panel. maybe 2 swipes, one to put on the w&g r. , and one swipe to remove the leftover film of the w&g r.)\
      the ur ready for some bulldog adhesion promoter, spray this on light ( u dont want a build, for texture purposes)
      then ur ready for a slight prime. this step is optionable.
      use SEM color Honda black, get it at advanced or where ever u want. spray on light and give time to flash (dry) add coats till desired.
      this is how im doing my interior plastics. if anyone has a better way let me know cuz i dont have time to go to the pik n pull that is not too close and is also closed on the weekends.
      One step @ a time

                If your looking to swap your interior to black then you need to look for a 91 SE that car had most of the interior in black. That car is pretty hard to find with good condition leather. If you look in the classified section you can find members that are selling black interior parts, crazymikey is selling the carpet from a 91 SE and other small parts.

                      please dont paint your entire interior. Just look on craigslist or junkyards for cars that are being parted out. Do an interior swap, you will learn a lot about your car

                            My dad's legend got stolen and he got it back interior painted black and red instead of the stock beige and gray, oh god it was hideous. Thanks for taking the advice and not turning a cb7 into some ugly tweakermobile hahahaha
