you know what? i've never been a fan of the whole deal with painted interiors...



but yours really looks nice. It's suttle because it's the bottom half of the dash, but it looks awsome, and matches you seat. You really did a great job, congrats! And welcome to the board...read everything you can! and when it doubt, search your a-- off!

That looks very good, I like the way you blended with the teal seat much softer look but custom as well. Congrats

thanks a lot guys
priceless to see the results
and the seats comes from a 92 and bought them for 70 bucks (cad)
the seats had seat covers from their early days ,they looked brand new
so i jumped on the deal(i had to fit the rails since mines were 1994)

the reason why i chose 11R (OEM color of my car) is that the guy from wich i bought the seats had a basecoat spray can matched with my color code.
this gave me the idea to mak a color test from wich is bord all the paint job, ideas just came along.

and don't worry for any probn could occur to me , since on mx-3quebec.com were like a little family like here to lots of help comes when needed.
and i also know about the research feature don't worry 'bout that

see ya on the board guys
