what color for the interior?
 
I was just thinking of spray painting the surround by the stereo and the shift boot. What color would look good with the stock Maroon color?

Thank u for ur help

Black...black looks good with just about anything.

why not try dyeing first?
before spray painting

Has anyone had good luck with Krylon fusion sticking to their dash or other parts?

When i had red interior, i did a two tone black paint, i painted the plastic bits on the doors black, the center console black, the coin tray black, the arm rest black, the rear quarter panel frames (part of th emain thing, but painted black to match), all window trim black.

It actually looked really hot.

EDIT:

I used the Napa plastic/rubber spray stuff. Seemed to work just fine for most stuff. It chips off for some odd reason, only in some places, only on some surfaces.

I like black. It just looks really good in a 7. Actually, my WHOLE car is black. The exterior, the engine bay, the interior is all black. Just a few accent peices that are going to be blue. Not too much though. I have a thing about black and blue though. I was thinking red, but red is way overused. Blue is just something different.

My bro uses truck bed lining for his interior parts. It turns out semi-glos, and smoothe as glass. It will NOT scratch either. It is freaking awsome.

I used black engine enamel to paint my boot surround, and stereo surround. Worked great so far. Isnt flaking off or aynthing

my dad makes signs for his business. he uses krylon fusion and it sticks to platic sign material good.

I painted mine black, it turned out really good. I like it so much better. I'll see if I can get a pic.

Rotofire 04-01-04 12:23 PM

please do, i am thinking of painting it mine black as well. Let us know what kind of paint you used, i've heard good things about Krylone Fusion.

Ludicrous 04-01-04 12:55 PM

I sanded them pretty well, used automotive primer, then Krylon. I also put a few coats of clear coat on. I'll take some pics after work.
