I'm afraid I went overboard and the car will look like it was used for cover in a paint ball game. Car is blacked out besides chrome wheels. I painted the

fuse box cover
wood grain
shifter
center console top
shifter cover
console lid
mirror adjuster trim
door pockets
dash trim
defroster vents

And several more things Tuner Red. Paint looks nice I'm just afraid its to much i haven't saw anyone paint this much. Did i go to far?

its all a matter of personal preference...

I like subtle so I would only go as far as the woodgrain, or at most woodgrain with the dash cover, and whole upper portion of the console

if your car is black or red with a black leather interior it shouldnt look bad... pics?

check the nut on the rack and see if it's wet down there. That's where they like to leak.

I painted some of my interior with white. I might have went overboard but I like it. Personal preference though.

Post some pics so we can give you better feedback.

The only overboard thing I can think of is the fuse box cover :lol:

The paint quality looks great, but I think it looks a little toooo bright.

Paint is darker than it looks my camera sucks. Its 98 Chevy Victory Red. We are relocating the battery to the trunk and deleting the egr. I was just in the middle of it and thought to take a few pics. Car was a mess when i got it and just now getting around to cleaning stuff up. I'm painting the dog bones braces and a few other things if the gtp billet ones won't fit

I'm still not 100% sure i like the paint. I just had some left over and thought it would look good.

I like it. A suggestion - paint the vents. They come out of the dash.

I so could have grabbed all those parts for you from my local salvage yard.... There's a Monte with all those peices, including the vents, painted the same color red or atleast very close to it. They are actually in really good shape too cuz the interior hasn't been touched, actually that car has hardly been touched at all
