Question interior trim

HI everyone,
I have a sundance gold CL types. I am current changing the interior leather to chocolate brown leather on the doors, center concils, half of the shift knob, and finally the seats ( just the dotted parts and head rest.) now i want to have the color of the wood changed so i was wandering if anyone had painted the moldings on the door, back panel and center? if so. how difficult is it?, was it worth it and how did you take the side panels out?. does it peel off becuase i live in south florida and it gets pretty hot out here.
Thank a lot
Goldmamo

There's a guy here with the same color car and he painted the interior trim the sundance gold color. He also painted his headlights that color. and lots of other mods. Interesting...and do a search for it, popular name for your color is Pimp Daddy Gold.

I painted all of my fake wood interior trim pdg, the headlights too, Im probably the guy 123456speed is refering to. Painting those pieces isn't too hard, its removing and reinstalling them thats tricky. The two center console pieces just pop off, but the four side pieces have to be cut off. Let me know if you have any questions and post pics of your leather work, I'd like to see that!

Were you thinking of dying the leather or recovering it? (the seats)

thanks guys, well the leather is going to be done like the BMW M3 but as far as the trims i still thinking about it becuase of the color is a bit load. Is there a cite i can go to see pictures of the interior? I have seen the pictures of farabeast. a nice car. i noticed you bagged your suspension. my older brother has a cadi on bags as well but i am not too crazy about doing it to my car. but i do like your grill. i will keep you guys update with my changes hopefully i will have pictures of the leater soon. ( i replacing it complitely but i also saw some Imitation ostrige skin leather.) It the same tone but the texture is different
Thanks again
