nope i got bored and painted my dash trim red to match the boost gauge.... i had no black paint.

but my buddy just came over and did his bowtie sport red tint and painted his grilles black so i may just go grab my pillars real quick and spray them.

so yea looks like i am going to be driving around with out my trim pieces for the rest of the week..

went to clear them and BAM the clear coat ate the paint made it all gummy. so i have to strip it all down to the plastic and repaint it. I might just do it all black.. unsure yet.

p.s. the paint and clear were same brand and base I didn't mix and match. my theory is the humidity caused the paint to not cure fast enough. i waited over 24hrs.. next time i'm going to use the hair dryer to speed up the curing process.

the ring doesn't come off the boost gauge so you would have to send the whole thing down.
