How did you color the A/C ***** without getting the clear part painted? Did you just use tape or something? Same for the mini grill near the front pillar of the car, does that just pop right off?

Also, did you sand down everypart? Including the A/C Face?

just a bit of info for the A/C control *****. The clear indicator part pops out the back of ****, just take a small straight screw driver or similar and push it out the back side.

I have a phantom gray pearl xa and wanted some suggestions on what color to paint the interior. Any help would be great. I was thinking maybe black? Since I have black rims.

Yeah, I am just not feeling that white. Maybe I am odd, but I like the bumpy texture on the dash etc. You did a good job and it looks sick, just the white doesn't do it for me.
