Has anyone painted their dash?

Update: I swapped out my speedometer because of this thread! The gauge was originally cyber orange and getting one custom made was going to run me $650. Instead, I sort of stained it with a tangerine alcohol pen and a lot of rubbing alcohol to work it in. I love how it turned out.

I did the door panels first, came out good, color match is better in person. That went well so did the dash top and bottom. That went well so did the steering wheel trim and screwed up the finish. 2 cans of SEM color coat, satin black, for doors and dash. Bonus hand stitched wheel if interested.

Well, I'm all done for now. Grab handles later and when my Redline Goods shifter boot shows. I'll update...

This looks awesome! Thanks for sharing. I'm looking to do something similar. What kind of paint did you use on the door panels? That's a soft foam insert piece on mine. How has it held up? Any cracking or chipping of the paint at all?

Colorbond, it's held up good thus far!

what did you do for the handles here? Did you paint these or did you get a different handle and put the wildtrak/A51 grips into new handles?
