yeah, it is a bit of a shame, im just thinking about masking tape and cutting to shape of the features, the silver looks a bit odd,
well, i would imagine thinners, when i was painting it i had a run mark, i didnt notice untill it was dry, so i just got thinners on a rag, and wiped it back untill it was smooth, and it came off pretty easy
i would imagine it would be a time consuming job removing it, but i just thought rather than stripping it afterwards, i would be able to just buy new ones when i got over it

cheers

im not sure of the actual paint, but i used a brand from autobarn called K&H, and its what they call a "plastic adhesion primer"

Here at Classic Fibre we can cover that in Carbon Fibre Vinyl

It looks and feels like Raw Carbon Fibre

On the gear surround, the bit behind the cup holder and the bit behind the centre arm rest, plus the dash strips and bezels of my central guages I painted. Its Lamborghini Green (or actually Focus RS Ultimate green which is the same colour). I did try the carbon fibre wrap and was impressed but this was just something different to match the stripes and other bits and pieces I am doing
Sorry for the quality.

Run through the "How Too" section of the forums. There are some really good How Too's on painting the interior of your car. Its nice and easy too! Ill probably be doing it sometime soon.
