Did you sand the plastic before applying paint? paint wont stick well to the plastic if you didn't sand it. but yes usually you want to leave it for quite some time before you handle it. Plasti-dip is more forgiving in this manner.

Yes, I did sand both pieces. I'll just let them dry mote before touching on the next pieces, thanks.

Paint will "dry to touch" in 30 minutes, but you need to wait last lest overnight before handling. Sand out you fingerprints, and try again. Take you time, don't rush it.

Installation instructions for the stereo upgrade kit. You may not need the specific instructions for installing the stereo, but it does cover how to remove a lot of interior parts and panels.

Sweet Jesus, you really went to town there.



That is gonna help me a lot replacing the factory stereo in my '11 with a Pioneer touch screen unit. Especially seeing all the nooks and crannies where stuff can be tucked away.

All that stuff, plus the steering wheel controls adapter and the USB/aux in adapter needs to go in there:

Hey, awesome write up man. Gonna b very usefull in the next week or so. I just got my chameleon pearl pigments in today from dipyourcar.com the Hypershift ZTS. Got all my clear coat for the pearls, clear top coat, high build primer,
black base coat, 800 grit sand paper... gonna use the high build primer to make the textured dash pieces smooth. I'll b painting all the dash trim plus my entire center console. I will post pics when I'm done.

This is a link to the color my dash and center console will b hopefully in the next week

Again, awesome job on explaining everything. I will also take the time to fix my A/C condenser drain line as its been plugged for the last month while my entire dash will be apart and easier access. (keep blowing air up into it and then letting it drain).
