Leave it STOCK ... looks much better than having ugly ass yellow trim, or blue trim .... just leave it black, gray, or mocha ... whatever it is now.

They sell vinly/fabric paint at wal-mart. Used it on my dash, door panels, and A-Pillar. Came out great for a $4 can of paint. Make sure you coat it several times though and clear-coat. Primer couldn't hurt either. There is a limited selection of colors at wal-mart, but I'm sure they sell the stuff at other places.

Oh... thats cool. Was his name Jason, with an integra? Yah his pieces came out really nice. We are in the process of doin some more pieces for him right now.
Yah...the cop pulled me for speeding and no front tag!!!!
But some how... i got lucky and he let me off.... i dont know how i talked my way outta that one.... but i was soooooo happy!!!
But if you want your pieces to look nice and smooth and you dont want your upholstery texture to show... you gotta like use primer and this one fiberglass stuff i forget what its called....

Hi all...I'm new here...but I know alot about this painting the interior thing.

It can be done yourself...using materials from Home Depot for like 30 bucks...
It is time consuming though....prep is half of painting.

Shoot me a PM for more details.
