Nope

 

You can dye it with professional dyes, bananaman did his. But he's not on here anymore I don't think!

 

However an ALL black interior I think could possibly be a little much!!!

Plus u would need to find a way to make the sunroof switch black, so could be tricky!

It could be re-trimmed using anthracite alcantara or dynamica with a foam scrim backing to make it soft, the sunroof switch suround could easily be covered in mb-lex (synthetic leather) or painted black (would work if done right). G40's and Golf GTI's had all black headlinings and they did not seem overly dark.

Do you mean the switch or the surround?

 

Mine has a black switch, but its set into a beige sort of panel, thats the bit I meant you could re-trim or paint :wink:

the beige sunroof motor cover paints rather well with some interior plastic paint, as do the A, B and C pillar trims, door pockets, rear shelf mounts etc etc etc... ;)

Any plastic can be painted quite well with the correct primer :wink:

 

The tricks you learn working in a coachbuilders can come in handy :lol:
