gauge pod for civic
 
i bought a gauge pod and its painted. how do i get it back to original color? should i repaint it? Where can I buy paint that matches my car interior? I have the 99-00 Civic Coupe Si interior colors.

if it's painted with cheap acrylic paint I'd try to strip if off with some paint thinner and then repaint with paint designed to ahere to plastic.

Some butt-monkey painted all the interior plastic trim pieces on my '99 Si before I bought it. I tried to get the paint off, but I could never get it looking right. I ended up buying new plastic pieces.

aircroft paint remover will take it right off, but its like acid, it might eat the plastic
