Brittish racing green, lime, metallic, flip,

this could be fun.... yellow

:eek:

my personal opinion would be :rofl: cant beat the standard subtle look :cool:

Having faffed around with mine and painted erm... too much or not enough!

Black magic or similar would look good if contrasted with the chrome heater k-nobs available on ebay (German) and/or German web-stores.

I went a little overboard and sprayed my radio front. Though I think it's better than standard, I now wish I'd done the minor buttons or got them chrome-finished whilst it was all in bits.

Ultimately, it's the expanse of the dash that brings the interior down. Other than bespoke tailoring, there's not a lot that can be done to that. And you've got to be wary of the passenger airbag.

Anyway, here's mine....

I have to do some of it again as the parts my hands touch near the heater dials have rubbed off over the intervening 18 months or so. Just as well that panel prises off relatively easily.

Now thinking I should have done them in Black magic or similar. Main PITA is the radio buttons. They really need some colour or even just clear lacquer. I don't want them sticking though. Which was the main reason for leaving them alone 1st time out.

Worthwhile checking any colours you try. Mine are pewter metallic. Only inside the car they take on a greenish tint due to the factory tint on the windows.

i like the standard look, but if your intent on changing the colour, why not try a "vrs theme" on photoshop (i know its a sport you have tho)

Just a suggestion lol

Hot pink... if 17 year old depressed girls are to believed...

Looks like matalic blood red.

The trick to spraying is

1, Prime

2, Spray

3, Wet & dry

4, Spray

5, Clear Laquer

Also have a fan heater to hand as it aids the dry time and also hardens the paint and laquer..
