We got the paint at Advance Auto Parts store, it is Duplicolor Vinyl and Fabric Paint in flat black, I think we needed about 6 cans or so.

Thanks, paint I used is above ^, we used rubbing alchol to clean all the plastic pieces before applying the paint. We used painters tape to tape off the mirrors in the sun visors, also used painters tape to tape off the seat belts when spraying the adjustment piece. EEIX installed the headliner and the OH $HIT handles and pulled down on the to paint the inside part where the spring is located and then wedged something in between to keep the handle down while it cured.


FYI, we did about 3-4 coats on all plastic parts allowing about 30 mintues between each coat. Then when we were done we left them outside in the sun to bake and cure correctly. The headliner was the same deal (minus the alchol) just applying it in coats, it takes a couple of cans just make sure its uniform.
