So you can use that paint on the center console and the radio trim? I've been wanting to paint those black for a while.

Yea I wonder how the handles hold up if people actually use them? I can't see paint sticking to rubber all that well.

But that looks really good... way better than the two tone. Headliner looks really good!

The paint is made to stretch, as odd as that sounds. It sticks to the handles and takes a lot of abuse. On my evo, the driver side sun-visor strap thing was stretched out, so I just cut it off and painted it to test the durability of the paint. After it was dry, I stretched that piece out like 2 feet and the paint didn't flake off, it just stretched with it.

So I assume that you painted the visors as well? Basically everything is paint except for the headliner?

Looks good. Good thing you don't live in AZ though. It would get very hot in there 8 months out of the year. LOL

Yep, sticks right to them. The paint drys the same material, it's more of a coating, hence the name, "color coat"

It's oem quality headliner material. It would cost around 100-120 for all the materials shipped to do that job including the paint. The headliner glue I use comes in a 5gal drum, and we use a special gun to lay it out too. You would have to get it in a can
