Default Thining about doing some minor interior work

My car is blue(duh, see user name) I would like that blue/white interior look. The inside is 100% stock, gray leather, everything gray! I was gonna start of small, and just do the little stuff, and leave the major to pros. Any suggestions of paint? I was gonna start w/doing parts of the door panel.

there is another post about painting interiors where i explained how it's done.. basically, sand, prime, paint, clear coat.. just like paintin ext's.. just dont use the cheap stuff... i was never able to find the like to the company, but theres one that makes paint for this purpose, its $40 a kit (1can primer, paint, clear coat)

for small stuff u should be ok w/one kit, but if ur goin all out, at least 3 kits.. i'll work on finding that link again n post it up for u

dude, any white interior color scheme is going to be a PITA to keep clean... just stick with the natural aestetics of the 5G Accord's interior...

DunReit is right.. the one me n my friend did together on his car was white/light blue, and even though it doesnt have tint and has put up w/florida sun for 7months now, its been gettin really dirty and is nearly impossible to get out.. u have to scrub and risk chipping the paint off.. just a warning, but for show go for it
