Painted interior / interior colors - your input

[jsbihn]

Hey all,
I am getting things together to paint the dash pieces on my H2. The interior is black tan and silver. The silver parts are the center console, the radio bezel, the AC ducts, and door handle surrounds.

I am wondering if anyone had this color combo and painted the silver pieces. I am trying to get some ideas of what color I want to paint them.

If anyone has pictures that would be great.
I am not looking for "bling"... just a nice paint job. I was thinking dark grey/ black/ or something

You comments, ideas, and pictures welcomed

If those silver pieces are in good shape you should sell them and buy the black pieces. The silver kits pull a premium! I was looking for one for ages but for the price of them there was no way.

I opted for the Tecstar carbon fiber pieces myself but still have all my factory black pieces.

LoJac963,

Would you have a link for the carbon fiber dash parts you referenced?

Thanks

They used to be sold on ebay but have sold out probably a year ago. They were the GM Tecstar option. Pics are in my build thread if you want to look at them. You may be able to find them somewhere other than ebay but the whole kit may cost a good chunk of change.

Thanks, I would love to see some pics. You can PM me or post. I have everything to do my own (CF material, vac pumps, bags, etc) I play with bicycles (trikes) and gunsmithing. Just finding time with two kids......hot wife....church......house remodel.....work...... is impossible

Hi,
I do different for everyone, I do not have them Painted, but I have covered in leather, I have the wheat interior, but the blacks interior, black leather would be even more interesting, perhaps with contrasting stitching (red, white or the car's color).
My English is bad, I hope you understand me

^wow that looks awesome, black leather would be kick ass!!

[jsbihn]

WOW I have to agree, leather looks sharp. I assume that is tan (wheat) colored leather?

[carloquaglia]

I found this synthetic leather in a store, very similar to the OEM interior color, that I bought the whole roll for possible future work

Don't worry about your English......those panels look awesome!
