rattle can?
 


















Thank for the compliments!! Nope, no rattle can. Regular spray gun. I wish I could find a way to dye the steering wheel green. I'd go for the all green look and get some Green leather seat covers from Catskinz(sp?). But thats down the road.
 






looks a lot better than the other kid who did the same thing. i like how it matches instead of being the compete oppisate color
 












what kind of pedals are those

mine matches my paint exactly



it look's ok..i geuss..lol
 






i mean it matches the interior
 






thing is it's not supposed to match the interior..it's supooed to match the outside like his does(and mine)..but he has that(IMHO) ulgy green interior..so the green on the outside kinda goes with the inside green
 






Yes its suposed to match the exterior, but it does also match the interior. Which is a bonus :D I like how its not as big a contrast like AK's. Mine also has a flat finish to it.

The pedels are from Advanced Auto and just clamp onto the original pedel. You can pick them up just about anywhere.

O, and I like my interior color. Its unique and very rare :D
 






oh yeah and todd

why a flat finsh?..did you not have clear?..lol anyway it look's good..lot better then the black..are gonna do the thing around the speedo?
 






I went with flat because I didn't think the gloss would look good in the interior. Its an arcrylic enamel, so it doesn't use the clear coat like the process you did. I'm glad I did go with the flat though, I think the gloss would've looked out of place

I'm not going to do the trim piece are the gauge cluster. Its going to put my black steering wheel out of place. So I figured I'd leave that black and sometime down the road do the passanger air bag and vent in black to do a mirror effect. Them possibly black BMW leather seats to cap it all off.
 






umm..that's different..i say go for it and if your happy that's all that matter's!!
 






i wonder if you could dye the peices. i have plastic (rit) dye that i use for my lacrosse sticks, if i can find a junkyard peice i will try it
 






Hmmm, Not sure what others have used, might be worth a try though, on junk pieces that is though ;) :D
