looks different from the inside when you look at the outside all the time.(scratch)

Exactly!


And I haven't tried it on the vinyl yet. Since vinyl tends to be stretchy I'm guessing it would wear off MUCH faster.

Well I used vinyl dye paint on the doors and such and it seems to be holding up quite well. I dont know what I am going to to with the dash board yet.

Hmm, in my opinion, if you are going to take the time to paint your interior, you should also sand out all the little textures. It makes you pannels look 100X cleaner!

When you painted the trim that surrounds the window controls on the door, did you just tape it off and spray it while on the door? I looked around that protege.ugly site and couldn't figure out how to get that little piece off. The problem with the carbon trim stuff is that it has to be cut and fit exactly or it looks like ASS (speaking from experiece).

Whoah you went a little crazy on the paint didn't you?!
I get a headache from the fumes just looking at it!

If I can find the time I'll type up some kind of how-to. But I just used a lot of thin coats of fusion. If you do it too close, it'll just bubble up and look like crap.

I think I would go blind if I sanded it down and painted it all blue though. It's bright, but sanding it down would make it even brighter, which isn't what I was going for.

I painted a few more parts of the interior yesterday too, I'll get picks up as soon as its clean and done.

you should try putting a coat of krylon triple thick clear glaze spray paint on there, that would give it a good shine
