i just hope it doesnt flake off. it shouldnt i just love the way the dupli color lays down and how easy it is to work with and how well it holds up. my whole interior is black just need new carpet seats headliner and visors.

Your truck looks pretty good just get the rest painted

you don't need "plastic" paint if you prep it properly like any other surface.

i think if you painted the radio bezel white and the vents blu it would help cuase you have your big parts like the door handles and cup holder base white but you painted the accents blue but then you painted your bezel blue....but the just my .2

i dont have any power options but i assume its the same thing. theres 2 screws kinda behind the door handle and once you get those out take flat head and kinda pry it off theres like 4 or clips holding it on and with the power options you prolly just have to unplug that junk lol

looks good. you should paint the insert they put in to hold your radio but thats up to you. unless you want to leave it black and red. i need to go buy a new insert for mine as i dropped that ***** the other day and broke it

Some of your mods look cheap, but I don't give you a bunch of crap. Stop haunting people in the interior forum.

To the OP, you should always wetsand between coats, and tack off - looks good but I see you have some orange peel.

I always use factory match color and ppg clear, and wetsand between coats. 3 each give good results.

That paint looks kinda dry, you need to use some clearcoat for a nice shine.
