What did u use to paint the turbo lettering on the TMIC red?

Taken from earlier in the thread:

I just used a fine-tipped brush, True Red touch-up paint, and a steady hand.

Re: the Redline armrest cover. Mine is coming in the mail along with the shift boot and ebrake cover. You got the black leather correct? I was just checking on their site and the charcoal color seems to be a good match for our leather bolsters. You think that would've matched better or you think the black is a dead-on match? I know you said the stitching is a shade off...not worried about that. Also, did you notice a little more padding with the armrest cover on?

 

[Kain]

The leather I got was black, and it's spot-on. The stitching is what they call JDM red, lawl. That's a shade off from the factory stitching, but close enough.

You might find installing the armrest cover a bit tough this time of year (well, you're in Florida, who knows). At the least, take a hair dryer to the leather right before attempting the install because it's a very tight fit.

uhhhh...that was atrocioius. Did you opt for the blue? Defi no make red gauges?

 

[Kain]

Yeah, they make red gauges. I already think this car has red-lighting overload to begin with. Couple that with my 12v LED flashlight which charges red, and I wanted something to break up the monotony and go with the blue accent lighting in the gauges and under the HVAC.

[Kain]

how did u make ur needles white?

I extracted Michaelangelo's DNA from a mosquito buried in a piece of amber. His clone emerged from a raptor egg and boasted that white gauge needles will be his new Sistine Chapel. All was well at first, until Newman stole Renaissance-era painter embryos and allowed Da Vinci to escape his enclosure. Poor, poor John Hammond...

















... the white needles come stock in '08.5 and '09 MS3s.
