started painting the interior

mattf0509 · March 30th, 2009, 10:42 AM

just finished some of the pieces im doin white to match the outside

Zatrekaz · March 30th, 2009, 11:08 AM

Looks good thus far. White is a hard color to do but looks great if done right. Deff take your time.

mattf0509 · March 31st, 2009, 12:46 AM

just finished almost everything thats going to be white...i cant get my damn center bezel off because i cant get my cd player out because i cant find the lil tool they came with but anyways if i have enough left over paint im thinking of doing the brake handle and shifter knob as well

Zatrekaz · March 31st, 2009, 02:20 AM

Now you need to paint the top piece and the whole inside black

Megawatts88 · March 31st, 2009, 03:12 AM

Completely agree

Megawatts88 · March 31st, 2009, 03:14 AM

Also, I didnt know if you had thought about it, but it would be cool to paint the pony and the mustang lettering white. Im painting mine blue to match the accent as soon as I can get around to it

mattf0509 · March 31st, 2009, 11:12 AM

eh i dont think im going to paint the whole inside black..too much work ill probably just take the door panels off and do the top half black and leave the bottom grey

mattf0509 · March 31st, 2009, 07:59 PM

finally all done with the white i think it came out ok lemme know what you think

Zatrekaz · March 31st, 2009, 08:08 PM

Looks great man, however I think I speak for many people when I say that White/Med/Light Gray does not go together. It may be alot of work, but it pays off when you paint your interior Black... If you paint the top half of the Doors black, then the top half of the dash bein med Gray will not go together either.

Imo, either leave it the way you have it or go with the black/white combo. Black and White would Looks fucking amazing with a white car imo...

Megawatts88 · March 31st, 2009, 08:38 PM

I am going to have to agree with Zatrekaz. I in no way want to tell you what to do with your car. After all this is about what you like and how you want to do it. You have done great so far.

What is your opinion of your work so far.

yellowstang6r · March 31st, 2009, 08:43 PM

What paint did you use? Any sanding? Primer? Clearcoat?

Let me know, I want to do some of my interior yellow, but need to know what to get to do it.

mattf0509 · March 31st, 2009, 09:16 PM

first clean each piece with alchohol..i used fingernail polish remover on the center bezel because i ran outta the alchohol and it works alot better...i didnt do any sanding because i didnt want the super slick feel then i painted with dupli-color high gloss white quite a few coats..then i used dupli-color clear coat with glitter and did 3 coats

yellowstang6r · March 31st, 2009, 09:32 PM

Is the paint for plastic or just regular spray paint?

mattf0509 · March 31st, 2009, 09:32 PM

well it depends. if its the version with screws you will have to take them out first then it should just pop out. If you can not see any screws then the only thing holding it in is the panel retention clips and in that case just firmly but carefully pull it up. Mine was a lil hard to get to come loose.

yellowstang6r · April 2nd, 2009, 05:48 PM

So matt, did you used duplicolor for plastics? or regular spray paint?

mattf0509 · April 3rd, 2009, 04:47 AM

i used dupli color vinyl and fabric paint and clear coat and also i finished the black today ill have pics posted tomorrow it looks pretty cool let me know what you think

mattf0509 · April 3rd, 2009, 06:46 PM

finally got around to finishing the black so heres one of the final pics

nuStang · April 3rd, 2009, 08:56 PM

I like it

I would have not done any white and done the top half of the doors all black.
I didnt realize how well the black part of the dash lined up with the top of the door...
