I've seen quite a few painted dash panels. What colors are you thinking about?

they have a paint out and a primer for plastic it is called vinal dye,Works great!!
also it is in a rattelcan just like krylon. just follow the destructions on the can and then clean and prep it real good.

the only thing you have to worry about is if you make the paint run or sag or you dont like the color no worse then painting other things out of a rattel can,
te vinal primer and paint are a good product and flex and also expandand contract with the hot and cold so they dont flake off afer a short time.

I have thought abou it but then i started to look in to figureing out a way to get a dash kit that is of stainless steel
some thing that i can etch in to it the flames im goign to put on my car

what im looking for is something that will go with the brezel they have at spped hut for the dash around the heater controlls etc.. actually looking for the billet knobs like the rustangs have out they are nice and work really good. just want to dress up the dash of this thing some how the car is white right now and would like to add the flames to it this spring if i can find someone here that i trust enough to paint it.
if i get it done it will be white with the pearl white flames and a light blue/puprel tip on them the dash is red during the day and at night glows prpel. so looking to find away to bring it all togeather in the car some how
