started painting my interior today, only got to the center console and gauge cluster though. basically any bit of trim thats black will be matched to the exterior red of my car. i haven't gotten to clearcoat yet even on these.


i'll post more once i paint the rest, clear coat, polish, and put everything back

 

lookin great buddy

 

did you sand them down first? If you sand, then paint... then repeat, then clear coat it will look super glossy.

 

i've been painting for a little while . yea, i sanded it down before hand and also sanded between coats of primer, so the clear should be pretty glossy. especially after rubbing compound and wax

 

heres installed and clear coated. i still have to do the other vents and door handles

 

AHHH DONT PAINT THE INTERIOR> I did that to my old car, eventually its goin to start to chip and ****, too much work to maintain that ****.

 

nothing i've ever painted has started to peel or chip. if you do painting right, its hard as a rock when you're done

 

You did a great job, however it seems you missed a few places. The inside of the coin tray by your radio and the vertical flaps in the air vents above the radio don't look like you painted them. They kinda stand out to me.

 

if I were to paint my intereior, it would be black and a medium walnut color almost like a burnt orange.... then Id paint the extiror black. But if I do that, i will have to get walnut or black leather seats. Alot of work but the end result would look very good.

 

yea, i know. that little coin tray was the last thing i had to paint an i ran out. then when i went to get more at checker they didn't have any more milano red
