I talked about it a lil while about finally painting the interior. and well the damage was done. here is the step by step that i took along the painstaking road to get the striped interior done!

here were the products that i used.
Krylon primer, yellow, black, and satin finish...


Step One
Sanding down everthing then applying the first stage of primer. (used 3 coats for definate coating.








Step Two
Letting it dry between coats... and im sure enough of us cannot put this in an easier term than PATIENCE is key... let it dry.. read the spray can and add 5 minutes.

Step Three
Adding the first of 3 coats of yellow... yet again letting dry enough in between.









Step Four
I took a sheet of paper... went out to the car and measured the distances between the stripes and drew a template. Layed the template. traced the lines, and then taped off.

Step Five
Painted first of 3 coats of black where stripes would fall in the interior.



Step Six
SLOWLY removing the taped areas that protected the yellow faced areas.





Step Seven
Putting everything back in the car... the one area that your always more nervous about... but take your time remember you must go from cd player OUTWARDS.







Step Eight
Enjoying time well spent.

where are the installed pics? im interested to see what you did

nevermind.. there they are. wow that looks awesome dude. nice job!!

 

Cool

 

haha thats pretty neat, i like the idea

 

very well done.

 

thats pretty creative...i like it!!

 

Nice I actually like this very different

 

eh, definitely awesome job, i give you an A++. I have never seen that before, so in my book, very creative. just not "my" taste. i would have left it a solid color, and painted the door trim as well. BUT looks good bro, gj.

 

how do u take all them trim peices off?

 

Interesting.. very unique.

later

 

wow im surprised i actually liek this a lot.. creative

 

whats this interesting and unique backhanded comments.... i think this looks ******* FANTASTIC!!!

great job bro.

 

theres a how to on it... but in lamens terms to getting them off... start above the glove box pull like hell... and work towards drivers side... but look for the how to lol

 

great job! Very original with the stripes! I think that what's important is that they're actually to scale with the exterior--again, good job!!!

 

can u PM me a bigger pic of them installed

 

wow really good job. I love tht idea.

 

i cant believe how nice it turned out myself... i was nervous.. but feelin kinda froggy... lol

That actually looks good!!!

I not feeling the glossy look though, but i gets it needs to be that way to match the outside.

 

they just snap on/off. just do the middle piece last and you'll be alright. might have to pop off the piece below the steering wheel to get those pieces off as well. not hard, just common sense.
