I did that the day I took the car home from the dealer. Looks much better.....

 

I agree...did he say he didnt sand the peices before priming? and if I put a clear coat on when i do this will it take away that flat black look?

 

looks good like others said looks stock

 

Looks good- a lot like my friend's Porsche 928 S4.

 

Real classy man!! I think it looks better than any carbon or stock piece.

 

Im torn. On one hand, it looks very clean, but on the other it is a little monochromatic and slightly boring. I kind of like the offset color (oem). Maybe if I saw it in person.

 

That looks professionally done. Great job!

 

i don't get it isn't that how oem looks? I can't tell the difference.

 

Nope, it's slightly different. Too bad I don't have a picture on hand to show you, or I would.

 

very nice oh yeah for the last month I been thinking on doing the same thing, my evo is black, any photoshop experts here? can you make it look like tarmac black?

 

Cool.
Reminds me a bit of the 80's sport cars though.
Good job nonetheless.

 

yeah looks good, did you say it was red at one point??

 

I think I might start this project today. Only thing is i'm not sure where I can let all the paint and whatnot dry in the dorm room lol. Also did you paint the area around the shift boot at all so it would match the new black?

 

Also wouldn't clearing it make it a bit more shiny?

 

Yes the dash was red first, then a failed attempt at brushed aluminum, now black. The pics for the red are at 'painted red dash mod'. I didn't paint the console because I'm still not sure if I am keeping it this color. As for clear coat, it comes available in flat, semi flat and gloss finish, so you can get whatever sheen you want. I wanted it more flat though.
