I want to paint the center console. Any suggestions?
Hi all
I don't like the silver color of the center console so I want to paint it to black. I want something that is going to make it look good. Any suggestions? Did anyone do this before? Thanks in advance for any help... Soner |

Some people on here have painted their center consoles. I would stick with a satin, matte or textured black finish to match the rest of the plastic surfaces as closely as possible.

Soner,
My suggestion is take a look on this website http://hydroimaging.com/ the guy used to be a vendor on this forum. He's done heaps of Yaris stuff, just look through the gallery.

Midon what type of paint did you use? Yours look pretty good... Also, it looks like it's sparkling a little bit, am I right?
Cali Yaris I agree with you. A matte black would look great. I just don't know what type of paint to use... A spray paint? Or a special paint... I have no idea :) Mad dog I know that website but I only want to paint the center console black so that website is really not for me.. |
