iv jst bought all the stuff i need to paint my dash and other plastic bits n bobs. bt i dnt kno were to start. im probably gunna do it in 2 colours. has n e one alredy done this or has pictures ov some painted ones so i can get an idea wat to paint wat colour.

thanks

im sellin all the plastic vents and surrounds if ur interested m8.also have mfd surround and speedo clock sorround thing.only wantin around £50 delivered so give us a u2u if ur interested.

firstly start by cleaning any panels your going to paint with petrol....this will get rid of any silicones.

then, sand the panels down with 1200grit paper (this will give the paint summit to stick to)

then, apply primer (aim for a light dust over 1st, then apply 2 good coats)

then rub the primer down with 1200 and repeat as above if neccesary

then apply 2 good coats off the colour coat and leave to dry

get the laquer apply 3 good quotes!! there ya go.

when you have finished please post some pix i was interested in doing this myself

i kno how to do it. i was jst after sum advise on colour schemes cos i dnt kno wat parts to start painting first. im going to do it in metalic silver + blue. jst wundered if sum1 had done it b4 so i could look at what im aiming for
