I've personally found that leaving an open can of house paint on the front seat then rolling the car over works extremely well :D

Personally, I do not recommend painting your interior. Spend the extra money and get everything you can wrapped in leather or pleather. I'm going to have to get my dash wrapped even though I had it professionally dyed.:banghead: I would have saved money in the end if i just got it wrapped.:banghead:

painting usually looks good from far but far from good. You have to disassble your whole car, use several coats, and then deal with all the scratches that occur from stupid people kicking your kick panels etc. etc. IMO it's a waste of time and money.

I learnt from del lude's mistakes and now you should learn from my mistakes.

1. I wrapped everything (doors, roof, rear panel, side panels)except my dash (big mistake #1)
2. I painted all the plastic peices myself (big mistake #2)

solution:
1. Wrap your dash!
2. go to an autobody shop to paint your plastic peices... it'll be more versitile. My plastic peices aren't scratched yet but that's because I baby it.

If you want your interior to last for a long time without worry of maintenance then I suggest you follow my instructions. Someone told me this and I didn't listen and now I'm gonna have to redo my dash :(

At least it was different, thats more than you can say for 95% of the imports out there.

I remember that issue!! It's like a green car with blue and green interior right? I think the car was from Siniste racing or some shit like that.
