Cool Painted my Interior YAY!

I got tired of GM's poor paint quality on our interior trim. Mine was pealing in certain areas and the silver looks like **** anyways. I love the way its looks now, considering doing pillars and dome light next(color undecided).

WET SANDED ALL PIECES TO TAKE OFF ALL OLD PAINT
This is Duplicolor Victory Red Code 74 (About 4-5 coats each piece)
Clear Coat with some other brand(3-4 Coats)

BTW NO IT DOESN'T LOOK ORANGE IN THE SUNLIGHT, THAT'S WHAT THE CAMERA DID. You'll have to trust me, but their isn't even a hint of orange in this red AT ALL!!!


SEE NOT ORANGE






THIS LAST PHOTO HAS THE BEST REPRESENTATION OF THE COLOR RED IT ACTUALLY LOOKS LIKE IN PERSON.

Looks GORGEOUS

Thanks,
Bratboy90

Are you talking about the one that holds my DVD screen in place?
I'm awaiting the find a black A/C switchboard piece, the it will match. Along with the black airbag piece that now has the SS symbol.

I am going for a Black and Red Theme with white as a mild accent here and there to stand out.

Funny part is that I used Duplicolor Spray Paint, but I did match the color codes. I just know how to actually do it right and not just spray over the existing paint. 600Grit sanded, washed multiple times, dried, Sprayed about 4-5 coats of Red with 10min inbetween. 30 min wait to clear coat about 4 coats with 10min between each.

Turned out very nice, looks legit as all can be.
