Painted Interior and Window Tint FTW!
 
10 Attachment(s)
Well I got bored and painted my interior a couple weeks ago. I did the plastic around the door handles, the radio bezel, the cup holder console and my door sills.

The color is Fiji Metallic Pearl. It's a Honda factory color that comes on the new Civic Si's. I love the color.

I also got my windows tinted. It's 20% on the doors, 10% on the back window and a window stripe that is 10%.

Let me know what you guys think.

I also put a Rockford Fosgate Amp to my Kappa 6x9's in between the seats. (i'm going to clean up the wiring tonight.)

Nice looking truck

How did you apply the paint on the door sills

I did that, and it continued to come off due to the door rubbing it.

Looks pretty good to me. Are those 6.5's in the doors?

kyle12201 03-09-2009 06:52 PM

Looks good man, I want to paint my radio bezel now, but I don't know what would go good with a green truck lol..

Trigger01 03-09-2009 06:53 PM

Looks pretty good. Your AC controls look like there are stickers on them... the little pictures just look odd imo.

04blackedge 03-09-2009 06:54 PM

That looks a lot like mine

I Taped it off, then did two coats bulldog adhesion promoter, then 3 coats of paint, then two coats of Clear. It seems to be holding up well.

Ray_Welder 03-09-2009 07:21 PM

Nice, it'll look good with the explorer console in there:biggthump

It will for sure!

I think the time for that might be coming pretty soon! :shhh:

htjunkie 03-09-2009 07:28 PM

Looks good. I'm diggin the door sills. Think I just found my next project.

99XLTman 03-09-2009 07:30 PM

Awesome! i love mine!

TrucknGolf 03-09-2009 08:12 PM

I really like everything except where the speakers are.

TrePaul86 03-09-2009 08:25 PM

You just gave me a new idea for my truck... I love the door sills/step plate thing painted. Awesome idea!

You're gonna swap those blue LED's out real fast too. They look cool, but I found those are more for function, and blue just isn't the same as white man.

thanks man!

Yeah, those Blue LED's look sick, but they aren't very good at lighting stuff. they're really bright but the light is weird.

I like the tint! I just got mine done too, I wanna get the rear window darker though.

99XLTman 03-10-2009 12:17 PM

I wouldn't get any darker than 10%. mine is super dark at night.

What kind of bulbs are they just standard 922/906/912 blue LED ones?

99XLTman 03-10-2009 02:14 PM

They're just Some Cheap Ebay ones. I didn't think there was a light in the middle. They're just standard 912 LED replacement bulbs.

As well as a blue 212 for the middle one I'll post pictures when I get them

99XLTman 03-10-2009 02:59 PM

Cool. I am already getting tired of the blue though. I think i'm going to get white in a couple of days.

Blackonblackfx4 03-10-2009 03:03 PM

I think the white pad type things should give off the most light, your blue bulbs will fit in your cargo dome/3rd brake light if you want blue in there
