Psh, get over to wal-mart and pick up a can of black spray paint, just don't overshoot onto your windshield, or on second thought, Window tint anyone?

So you're saying that most of the Integra owner population, first of all, is latino..and second, live in California? That's the dumbest shit I've heard in a long time. Most of the CLUB Integra population are from places other than California also? And there are plently of shops or online stores that aren't based in Calfornia..to name just ONE, TurboXS..five minutes from my house:roll:

Anyways, I think you'll be fine spraying it, I think dupli-color makes an interior paint you can use. Just mask it well.

Amber,He might have fiberglassed the interior but fiber glass still needs to be painted.

nothing from nowhere
wipe everything down with lacquer thinner and use the vinyl paint. use thin cardboard to cover your windsheild. the bad thing is it still will chip.

My upper dash is already black, so thats not a problem. Its all the plastic pieces that are tan besides the bazel. The roof is tan too but I can deal with that I guess

I painted my whole interior front to back... i just took literally everything out down to the metal, put in a new black carpet that i got from jcwhitney for i think it was $100, then we wiped everything with lacquer thinner let it fully dry, sprayed it with a paint promoter let that fully dry and then hit with about 3 layers of black vinyl paint. it took about 20 hours of work time but it looked real good. if you do it that way though be careful taking out the panels cause they are easy to break. and also that way you can lay it flat not miss anything and not get any runs in the paint! but thats just what i did! good luck!

Hey, check out on Youtube, and look for DupliColour TV. Theres all kinds of how to for the prep and process of doing a whole car interior. There Vinyl and Fabric paint works really well, but most of your work will be in the preparating. Clean the pieces well, and use a good degreaser/prep spray, and you should be good to go. Obviously this will never be as nice as getting a whole new dash, but hey, if you do it well it should look nice. Plus in a few years if it fades or wears then pull it out and touch it up!
