Just a word of warning to everyone, I did it and it grew old fast, to the point I wish it was black again. I kinda took out some of the "seriousness" of the whole interior. But hey, some will like it

I painted mine red a year and a half ago and still love the way it looks.
It totally makes the interior, and personally I think it should be painted straight from the factory. Not sure if I have a picture, but I'll have a look for one if anyone wants it. |

I still wiped down all the pieces with rubing alcohol (not to much tho, or ull start to remove the color from the plastic, and ur paint will look odd) -------------------- ![]() Kawi Love |

Wow! These look awesome! I'm really impressed by dustin's and forkee's (probably because my fav colors are orange and blue
I agree with rayme, though, I wouldn't want to paint it and then feel like it's too much...I'm gonna try and stick with my all-black leather interior idea.... ....if I can resist temptation after seeing this.... -------------------- "I bet you drive a standard."
