    Default Installed new headunit and painted dash

    Thought I'd show a few pics.

    $0.70 sheet of 3000 grain sandpaper
    $7 plastic primer
    $16 can of 30% gloss vinyl dye
    $20 Vy - VZ Singledin spot filler

    I'm Very pleased with the results

    By the side part do you mean the parts I've left silver?
    I taped over that part as i was spraying it so i would have a nice silver outline

    If your going to respray it i suggest do the whole thing. It's incredibly hard to colour match.

    There's only 3 or 4 bits to the entire center dash. It all pops or screws off.
