^ do you have seat covers? if so... not good idea. they are cautioned against because of the SI airbags...

[Vampyrate]

very nice job! duplicolor is the paint company that i swear by for all of my painting needs!

and if you want to add to the blue interior scheme... go to www.autolumination.com and get the blue 194 matrix LED bulbs in blue (those are for the map lights, i dont know about the dome light).

[SkaterCarl]

Sweet! I have blue interior neons, and I just ordered a blue LED dome light, and I was looking for some blue maplights. Thanks man, I'll check that out. And yea, I have seat covers. I didn't realize I had the side airbags.

[Vampyrate]

autolumination is the only site that i get my bulbs from... i love them and the speed of shipping, check out the seller feedback. since i wrecked my sedan, i went from the blue lighting scheme (my sedan) to a red one (in my sedan) check out The Raven under search sometime...

anyway... lets see more dash pics!

[SkaterCarl]

Yea, someone else had posted that site on another thread, it's:

I ordered the dome light a few days ago, so hopefully it'll be coming in soon. I'll post a pic when I get it.

And I know this is way off topic. Sorry.

for the 02-03 GT, did you guys have to pop everything out of the dash or did you just tape it off? im thinking about doing my interior red now. everyones looks great!

[hyunelan2]

Take it off. The tape method never turns out as good. If you were to spend all the time to perfectly tape-off everything - you could have removed the pieces 2-3 times in that same amount ot time.

im looking to swap out my entire red painted interior pieces. i will also include 8 more new cans (never used) of the red paint as well as 4 cans of the clear. even trade, only you pay shipping both ways.

btw, each can of red was 11.00.

there is 4 coats of color and 2 coats of clear on all the trim pieces.

figured i would throw this out there.

[SkaterCarl]

Yea, I would definitely suggest taking all the pieces out. Its easy enough to do, and it'll end up a lot better. I just need to figure out how to get to my passenger side AC vent. That definitely needs to be painted on mine.

flathead screwdriver with a towel wrapped around it...pry GENTLY!!

[FinalBreath]

Im looking at painting my dash faica silver. Something similar to the exterrior of my car...

[Vampyrate]

i took everything apart, including the vents and put it all together when it was dry.

no thanks on the swap... im not gonna paint asa much as you, im just gonna do a small piece on the doors. thanks for the offer, shippind would suck and having everything apart for a few days wouldnt work for me. I think im gonna get some krylon paint this weekend and make an attempt.

[2loud2k2xd]

no prob man, i figured id save you a good days of prep and paint work.

is that how long it took you? damn thats gonna suck. im thinking about just painting the bezel, and the piece around the window buttons. dunno how that would look

[metalfetish]

well i did the bezel, the center console (which took like two seconds to take out) and the handles. all pieces same color took 6 hours or so.

[KSpec5guy]

I just posted the pictures of the way I painted my dash in the Spectra. I did it black and red. Turned out okay.

you cant rush perfection

[Ugzz]

just had to do it




ok, its not TOTALLY worthless.. some good info indeed.. but pics would be awesome

[Munky]

I need an honest opnion...which color would look best to paint the interior panels?
I was thinking silver to match the exterior, but i was also thinking a midnight blue or navy blue...but that might be too much blue. I just can't choose. =(
