mine didnt come out so well. i wanted a shiny black look and it just didnt happen. i did about 3 coats of primer, 3 coats of gloss black paint, and 3 coats of clear coat. i think i think if i had done fewer coats of something it would have come out fine. now i think i am just going to take it to a body shop or something and pay to have it done.

painting my trim in my garage at night with no ventilation probably didnt help, or the vast summer humidity. my dad told me to do it outside during the day but then dust, dirt, bugs or whatever can screw up the end result.

how much does it typically cost to have about 7 small pieces of interior plastic painted at a shop?

i want anything thats silver painted black. thats the radio, cliamet control trim, shifter trim, door handle trim.
