you know how people take out those plastic parts on their cars on the door and paint them colors and they have little red or blue peices every other place you see in their car... for example

(cant get the picture thing to work)here is the link

can you buy things like this already made or would you have to do it yourself cause i do not want to mess it up and have it look shitty... any help would be greatly apprsheated!!!

most people don't paint them, they get red fabric or the actual doors that had red inserts in them.

And where can i get door inserts look at the link it pretty much what i want to do

oh... You want to paint your interior plastic trim pink?

Find screws, remove them, once you've removed enough the trim peices will come out.

Proceed to spraypaint.



BTW, none of that matches very well. It's too loud for an interior IMO.

to the OP- if you want it to come out looking OEMish and nice you will need to contact an upholstery shop...

I don't think an upholstery shop will want to paint the plastic trim.

I was referring to her wanting her seats to be black and pink...for the plastic pieces i would find a good paint and body shop and have them powder coated. But even still as stated before...they never look right and as a tendancy not to last

I know what she is trying to do, and to do the seats to match i would go to an upholsterer.

powder coated?? wouldn't that melt the panels???</TD></TR></TABLE>

possibly...i was hell bent on doing somehting similar to my interior based off of the CTR and i called around to a few hsops that seacilize in this stuff, west coast customs, stitch craft (they did the interior for fast and the furious and several other cars), and unique auto sports and asked them how they did some of their stuff. Some said powder coating other said interior dye. The conversion was spendy though to have stuff re-upholstered. For example to have the dash re-done in black it would be 10-12 hours at $75 an hour and like $20 bucks in material....not worth it IMO
