WELL ill try and get pics up for midle of the week if not it will be end of next week as i am going away for a few days on wednesday so will have a look at doing it after that


i will tell u what i have painted,
all the vents,
mfd housing,
airc curcilation thing - the thing u take out and there are 2 screws behindit.
door pockets,
plastic round tweeter and door handle,
this looks sweet coz it goes with:-
silver handbrake handle,
gear knob with red led's on,
chrom gear surround,
red leather handbrake and gear gaiter,
chequerplate flooring, alloy tax disk,
momo milenium stering wheel,
red dials red neons in foot wells,

is that folatec stuff any good for the interior, or it better spraying the interior bits with proper paint??

but silver is a good runner up. But stick with the subtle m8, thats what makes it look classy.

if the red is done right then it will look better than silver :)

yeah alot of people match the interior with the bodywork colour, I got a black car but the interior is red, so I'm following that when I colour code inside.
