painting doors with dark grey interior? Pic Request
 
my new truck has the dark grey interior but i still wanted to paint the door handles and the radio bezel (sp?) Im not sure how that will look.
My truck is red, so i wanted to paint them red. Has anyone done this who can show me a pic of what it will look like?

I will post a pic of my interior tomorrow in the daylight so if there are any photoshopers who can help me out.

do it evan, krylon fusion is the best to use. prep it well and start painting, take your time.

ScottG 07-06-2005 09:48 PM

too bad the fusion's red is no where close to ford's red



i have pics somewhere with my interiors pieces painted red and dark grey interior

fusion holds up great, and really bonds to the plastic, but as far as looks are concerned, it isnt anything special imo. you can get a finish that looks much much better by applying a base of some sort, then a quality color, then a clearcoat on top.

im not asking IF i should do it.

Im asking will it look good with the dark grey interior.

rangererv 07-07-2005 05:28 PM

but do you think that red will go with the dark grey???
thats what im asking....

barrman 07-07-2005 09:58 PM

i think it'll look ok man... youre colormatching it to your exterior right? fire engine red or the maroonish red?

wow, that silver looks NICE!!!!!!!
i really like that


ya, i was thinking about matching the red, but my brother (an artist) said i should pick another color and go with that on the inside.
Maybe ill go with silver. I really like the looks of that.

Redneckstone 07-07-2005 10:30 PM

barrman 07-08-2005 01:15 AM

Hey man, where did you get your black interior pieces from???... Did you go to a website or get EXTRA EXTRA lucky in a junkyard?

barrman 07-24-2005 11:52 PM

i used black SEM vinyl and fabric coating on the interior pieces....

gopher18 07-25-2005 12:35 PM
