16  Technical & Styling / Interior Mods / Re: HELP! Painting Dash... on: June 03, 2008, 08:14:33 PM
I just painted my dash and everything came apart pretty easy. Like most poeple say, our cars are like lego, they really just pop apart. The oval around the radio just pops off, grab the edge's and pull toward you. You'll see the screws holding the vent circle's on. You'll need a couple small flat tip screw drivers the slide the actual vent off the circle, but it's pretty easy. The dash part around the Gauges also just pops off, grab the edge's and pull toward you. Once that's off you'll see the four screws that hold the gauge cluster in. After you unplug it you can pop it apart, you'll see 6 screws on the back and then only the tabs hold it together. (i painted the piece around the gauges too) The center part under the shifter just pops off too but once you get it off you'll have to unplug the flasher switch and pull it out. I'm not sure about the piece around your shifter as mine is a manual. But it shouldn't be that hard. The hardest part for me was the silver piece on the far left and the AC control center piece, and the circle vent on the far right. After you pull the radio oval out, you'll notice a skinny trim piece under the radio, pull that toward you like the rest, it just pops off. That exposes two screws on each side, take those out, now you can lift up the dash a few inches to pull out that center piece around the AC controls. You have to lift the dash again to get that far left piece off. and for that pisky far right vent, it's held on by 3 screws and to get to them without taking your whole dash apart, just peel up that side of the dash to get under it. It's kinda tight, but if you use a stubby screw driver you can get it. Putting it back together was easier. I'll post pics as soon as I can

interior paint, ok, but what brand? I was in pep boys and autozone and they had the plastic paint, I think it was Krylon, but the blue didn't look like that. I have the same steeering wheel cover you do, and want to match the blue to it. They had a metalic paint that looks like a match, but it was for metal. Did you use that?

I just got these yesterday! Black Enkei LS-5 wrapped in Toyo Proxes 4 rubber, vastly superior to the stock wheels!
What does everyone think?

Oh! I live in Ogden UT and my box is a stick!

I live in northern Utah so it's a little hilly and in mixed city/highway driving, I have been getting 25-27 MPG. I have over 5000 miles on it and it hasn't changed! I love it. And I have to admit, I tend to hot rod it a little, but even then it's 25-27 consistantly. ALOT better than the '06 Ford F150 I traded for it.

If you don't mind cleaning your box every other day, get the dark colors. I have the NBM and although I love it when it's clean, any light rain and it looks like crap. It's almost a daily fight to keep it looking good! And it does show swirl marks as well. When I bought mine, it was between the silver and the blue, I wish I would have picked the silver. Also, if you want to throw graphics on it, they really pop with a lighter color IMO

Yanges, I'm in Utah and we're getting pounded with snow, but my box handles great in it. Unless it gets like a foot and a half deep then not so much. I got stuck in a Smith's parking lot and it took like 20 minutes to get out. I'm wondering how bad it'll be when I lower her!
