vht vinyl spray is what I used on mine.

What colour were you thinking about spraying it.
You should think long and hard about it... As I did mine black and I regret the decision entirely.

:unsure: White? I dunno, man. Could look really bad, especially after a few months. What colour is the extrior?

Don't forget, Holden offered a few different colour interiors on VL. Personally, I love the blue one. You could probably pick up the lot from a wrecker pretty cheaply and get a much better result than painting anyway.

yeh...actually the more i think about it, the more white duznt seem 2 b such a good idea..... yeah my interior is that blue colour, but the dash is all scratched and looks ugly. Can u just get a paint that will match that blue to re-spray the dash in?

and also do the rear calais seats come in that same blue colour? coz i want the seats with the head rests. Anyone know how much they go for?

thanx.....

Well with the exterior being silver you've certainly got alot of options.

Interior colours being Grey/ Blue/ Maroon/ and theres a Greenish Colour too isn't there?
Along with the beige.

So you've got some choice, Don't go quite.. Glare factors there aswell as it looking a touch tacky. And yes you should be able to get paint made up to match.

hmmm.... whats wrong with painting the inerior dash componets and door tims silver? beige would also look good but that all comes down to the upkeep of the car and the cleanlyness of your hands when you drive the car.

Silvers a bit tackier then white don't you think?

Looking like your getting in a space ship from the 80's..
