Interior Paint

Where can I find it? What's the best stuff to use? Is it difficult/risky to do yourself? I'd like to paint the silver trim yellow and the SS emblem red.

Beyond that take your time.


But it should also be said you can get any current gm color in a rattle can from gm.
I have victory red gm paint for my car. Was 12 bux a can I think. I used it to do my front bowtie in the grill. Matched up almost perfectly (my primer was probably a shade off of what the factory used but you cant really tell).

Yeah dude, i'd love to see what it looks like. I've seen pictures of it done before, i'm about as mechanically savvy as you are photoshop savvy though, lol. So I obviously don't want to **** it up.
