Looks very clean, especially with all the trim pieces actually matching. Nice work

93civEJ1 -- why?
if your asking why i did it... mainly because the foglights piece and the piece that stretches across the dash had like a really really fake carbon fiber type design. I just didn't like it... Plus it looks alot cleaner now ...


you should paint the A/C knobs the same
you know that wouldn't be a bad idea... i might have to try it and if i don't like it... its not like it would be hard to paint them back to flat black! Good idea

Thats the exact color I am looking for to do my interior, what color is that and where did you buy? part #'s would be cool too. I am also wanting to paint the piece thats by my shifter knob, does anyone know how to get that piece separated from the console piece?.....(I know how to get the entire section out, just didn't look how to get the top part off, as thats where I hid my XM box :-D)

hats off to you... great job with the paint... I also do not care for the fake carbon fiber... I would do mine but I'm getting lazy in my young age... I wouldn't paint the knobs unless you don't use them... it will rub off
