Ive done this twice now. First time the month after I got the car in '06 second time about a month ago. I did the reverse - painted the trim panels around the dash and the arm rests on the doors and center console.
First time I just prepped and painted. This time I sanded down all the panels to completely remove the 'dimple' and repainted a metallic similar but slightly lighter than my stock blazing blue. Same went for the engine cover.
Anyone looking to smooth out the interior panels be prepared for a lot of f*cking work -
I havent repainted the center console because I intend to replace all the seats and fiberglass from front to hatch.

come up here to Sac. there's that place that i told you about that will do a CF replacement. might give you a discount if i come with you in your car and say that i traded my sedan in for the LB.

but like i said, i was estimated around a G for the interior.

eijikikimaru · 04-19-2007, 07:21 AM

It looks like stock so didn't think anyone would care. (please excuse the quality, camera phone quality)

I would have colored the grey turning knob but I was afraid I wouldn't be able to locate it if everything was all black

yrsdrgn · 04-19-2007, 04:34 PM
