Hey all, Just wanted to see what you think if i paint my plastic interior pieces, dash, vents, etc. Shiny chrome. The rest of the interior will be black. Will it be too pimp? IS this even possible?
my exterior is blue

chrome paint is garbage, dont even attempt it, it will look like crap. it wont look like you think.

silver will look better, but i still think it looks like ****.

so i should just stick to making it shiny blue?

Paint it whatever you like - except chrome..You can use chrome decal sheet if you really want chrome.

there are shops that can chrome plate stuff

ive seen some stuff that they bake on (prolly not good for plastic) and some stuff they dip the pieces in...

search around

Personally I learned my lesson never to paint parts, I did mine in white, I got sick of them in like 3 months lol. I guess if you're doin the whole interior then I'd paint em to match the exterior, or better yet keep them the same colour as the dash.

It's very heavy shiit though, but that would be a lot better than using the chrome paint.

I would never paint my interior. OEM is nice and easy clean, and perfect details like vents and corners, little imperfections drive me nuts! I know i could never do it 100% perfect

make sure you piant it right- not chrome- cause my buddues white dash started to peel and chip, so it looks dirt now, good luck, stick with blue

j_limitz

yeah i agree...go with blue..don't forget the clear coats though...or else it will chip easily..some parts of my interior are chipped or scratched cuz people are careless!!!!

Just keep it OEM, I was honestly going to paint some pieces black on my EK's interior but then changed my mind. The only thing I'm going to be changing in the interior when money allows, is a short shifter, new shift **** (gotta go OEM on this one), shift boot, reverse or full indiglo gauges and maybe the steering wheel.
