Well mine has greybrowncreamred carpets! 12 years of god knows what embedded in.

You can only do the face with an air sander, rest by hand
Shot blast -> P80 -> Etch -> Scotch -> Prime -> Wet Flat -> Paint

I'll just pay someone 
But i'm not doing anything to the car for the time being, not until the car is fixed and not got a squealing belt and a whine!!!! then i might treat it to some nicely refurbed wheels

Yes and no, this might effect the finish of the paint due to the chemicals of the paint stripper
@ Mrs_Howey
Tried the aux belt? Clean up the pulleys as well as mine snapped due to the old ones having melted rubber on them
Whine could be your diff

The aux belt is brand new only been on the car a week, but been squealing since i started it the next day.
I've had a few idea of what it could be, it sounds like it's coming from the engine lets hope it's not expensive!
