How do u change the color of the marble panels along the doors and dash? I heard someone say they took it to shop to get painted, can i do that because i dont wanna put that vinyl on top of the marble, it looks to bulky.

 

are you talking about the woodgrain trim? you can either buy the part from a dealer site or go to a junk yard

 

The wood trim is wat i want to paint....

 

u can paint it its fine just make sure u scuff it with a very fine sandpaper. or use a grey scotch pad very lights and it should be fine

 

huhhhhh!!! How is this process done??

 

Exactly what he said, sand/scuff it then paint it.

 

does this have a diy ,,because sand scuff and paint sound to simple???

 

Dont take this wrong, I dont want to sound like an ass but if you need a diy to paint you maybe shouldnt be attempting it.

It is that simple, sand them, clean them, prime them, paint them. If you have the wood look around your inst cluster, that is a stick on panel. Peel that off and paint the trim. The pieces on the door dont come off easy. You have to either take your time taping the door panel really good or take the time to drill out the plastic rivets on the back side of the door panel to get the trim off

 

lol haha but yeh man its simple! easiest way is just taking the panel off and then working from ther. i think it the wood trim is just screwed in with phillips screws f im wrong? or like he said its just rivited take them out the the wood trim shuld just come out then scuff it with a gray scotch pa so you hide the scratches they are not to deep but deep enough so paint will stick. after you sand the trim prime it, but use an adhesion for the material like plastic adhesion then prime it, after primer sand it down smooth with a nice fine grit EX. 600-800 after that clean it up again and thennnnnnnnnnn you can paint it

 

no, it is pried off with a flathead or long fingernails, nothing really fastens it down.

 

okay just pry it off then do whatever i wrote before lol good lookin out assclown hope this helps you out broo! let us know how it turns out

 

If I remember correctly it's melted plastic behind the panel. Use a drill to drill out the melted part. I believe there is something in diy.

I repainted my panels and my shifter plate to the color of my exterior and it looks much better.

What did you use to get the woodgrain effect?

 

^I'm confused

 

I think you're confused.

 

Oh the grey/black woodgrain was stock? Never seen that before. I actually kinda like that look.

 

Only an option for the Type-S

 

Ok. I was the confused one then.

 

Thats the black wood interior, you can get the center console pieces easily the doors are a whole other story nobody wants to sell the panel off the door you would have to buy the door as a whole piece and its pricey just to get the panel...if you live near someone maybe you can trade if they would like.


The nicest looking one is the aspec panels that aluminum/stainless steel looks sweet

 

I really liked that grey wood grain trim. Did you replace your navigation screen with a tablet?

 

Looks great but I would have painted them Silver... Black + Black = TOO BLACK!

 

Wish i would have seen this post before you painted them because i have been trying to find someone to trade my brown wood grain for their black. The problem is finding someone who wants to trade the black for brown.

 

Yes. I did replace my nav screen with a tablet to get a much bigger 7 inch nav screen
