Nice, like the black you gonna do the AC panel too? Any more picsof the finished product?

Nice

looks good..

hey you should do the a/c panel, it will look much better. I painted my silver to match the exterior and the light from the symbols still showed bright at night. And you could even get clear computer sticker paper and print replicas of the symbols and stick em on after painting. But otherwise it looks good.

Also you should sand smooth and paint the piece that goes around the gauge cluster so its deep black and glossy to match other pieces.

^^ i agree. you should do the ac panel. some guy on new celica was selling the vinyl overlays for the ac panel (the symbols) if thats what you were worried about. don't know if he's still doing it but its worth it to find out.

other than that, i love it. very nice, clean job

pretty sweet lookin...

damn dude invest in a short shifter

What kind of paint is the best to use? Do you need to prep the plastic? Primer?

i heard krylon was good for plastics. I'd use a sandable primer so it's easier to get all the texture off the dash. Just spray a few coats on and sand lightly.

awesome
do the AC part and get those sticker things to replace the markings

ahh nice. I didnt see that pic of it installed. It must have not been loaded yet (damn 56k!!). Yeah do the AC part. It will flow nicely then

ac would be good too but otherwise Nicely done..

u sanded the whole thing? damn my friend and i just painted his today, and we didnt sand his, we just masked the shit off and painted, how did you get ur clock out?? maybe we should have done that too... we are going to put it back in tomarrow, we will post pics cya

looks awesome man. wish i had the balls to do somthing like that

yeah ditto here

Parliament light menthols, I thought my best friend was the only person in the world who smoked those.
