Hey whats up! My question is this, does it look good when you paint the dashboard and stuff. Mine is tan now, and I want it to be black, but I'm scared it will look cheap. And does anyone know where to get the best paint to do it and what it's called. Someone please help!!

i have painted a few interiors before, i have used all kinds of different paints, from models paint right to shoe leather paint, but i find the engine paint is the best, i doesnt fade i wont crack, and it is extreamily durable, also comes in quite a few different coulors!!

Eric, in order to paint your dash board you need a good quality vynil paint, I did that once to a car of mine over 6 years ago and to this day it still looks as though i had just done it yesterday. The brand of the paint is called "Mar-hyde" which is available in a wide variety of colours, you can get this from your local automotive parts retailer that mixes and supplies automotive paint.
