i don't like it either but hey its your car and do what u want with it just not crash it lol. i personally would never paint any dash component cause it doesn;t feel or look right most of the time.

you should re-do your doors. you ither need more red paint or you didnt put down a base coat.you shouldve painted the doors white and then red. looks like you have 3 colors of red.

you should also paint the speaker covers black and the cubby(that inside part on the doors) black also.
