Has anyone removed them, to include the ones on the doors? I was wanting to get them painted to match the exterior and just needed to know if they were screwed in from behind or pop out.

Any and all help would be appreciated.

 

i dont understand ur question. id love to help. but what do u mean?

 

Door and dash trim pieces, probably. Closest thing to possibly looking like CF.

I'm willing to bet they're heat-tacked on like trim in most other cars.

 

Sorry for such a confusing question, but yes those trim pieces. The dash ones are usually clipped in. thats why I was aking to see if anyone had actually removed them.

 

That'd be great to know. I wouldn't mind slapping a coat of paint over that ugly checker pattern...

 

I'm hoping someone comes out with a nice brushed aluminum replacement kit. Maybe some extra pieces to cover unsightly plastic like the trim around the HVAC knobs.

 

I took the parts out last weekend to redue them in a brushed aluminum look. It just takes time. The dash panels are easy with just one screw on the ends. To get the doors you need to take the entire door apart, but it is not too bad. I aluminum look is much better than the fake CF, at least Mitsubishi could have given the fake CF the look the Hondas have.

 

^pics please

 

Even the decal kits for the dash would be fine by me. The high-end ones (read as: not cheapo) look great. My friend got a quality CF sticker dash kit in his Evo and it looks really great. Or like the kits RMR used to offer...

 

What screws?

 

Problem solved, I figured it out. Thanks for the help.

 

how do you make a brushed metal look? is it spray on or something?
