how on earth do you get paint to stick to the rubber arm on the door i mean it seems as if it would peal off of wear off from the everyday use ..

no peeling.....I used krylon paint and a clear coat sealant.

would you mind shooting a close up of some of the pannels so i can get a better idea of the quality of the finish ..also the door arm ... btw you did a fantastic job

 

[dragonbabe79]

sure, once I get the car back from getting the body Kit on....(whoo hoo)
Thanks!! It was a combo of boredom and creativity.....and besides the fact that If I want to take any trophies home this year from carslile I better do something to the interior!

I would need to find a comparable Krylon in Blue to make my interior as pimp as yours!

Go to Michaels.. (the craft store...) They have Krylon paint at a good price....Or if you go to www.JCWhitney .com you can get the interior styling spray which is about 14.99 a can. thats what I started out with. It works too. But I like the cheaper stuff.....

Im actually going to change the boot. I just bought a Momo one. the current one is a $12 cheepy from ebay. i haveto rig it to work....Im also replacing my shift knob because well if you notice, that is the original..um that I painted.

thats looks awsome dude!

 

[Heathen23]

Thanks for posting those! You are giving me ideas....hmmmm....maybe a serious splash of red is what my ride needs. Calipers, interior, and Strut bar all red? Decisions, Decisions.

Looks great! Like MP5 said....get us some close ups!

Lemme guess whats next:
1. Driver's side vent to match the passenger side.
2.Radio trim
3.Steering wheel

And if you really dont like the yellow then I guess the seats will have to be reupholstered.

Its funny how you try and get rid of the silver. I have a LX model and want to paint all my bland parts silver to make it look as nice as the MP3. Go figure.

where'd you get that MS sticker on the cup holder cover?

Hy dragon...what was the name of that clear you used? I painted my inte3rior but it is beginnin to get peely so I thihnk I am going to redo it...Was it just Krylon Clear Coat Sealant?

www.corksport.com

It is part of a decal package....


As for the parts that I will paint next you are right...althought the driver's side vent will be tricky because it doesnt come off like the passenger side one...Go figure:wtf:

 

[Volley2six]

Dragonbabe,
How'd you remove all those parts to paint them??? Do they all come off fairly easily?

[dragonbabe79]

very Carefully.......
As to not break them!

Me too, I love the silver interior in my MP3 and I will never paint it.
Isn't the silver nice??!

Those custom paint is for those civics or integra which have a boring interior.....
