interior colour

I wanted to do an interior colour spray to match the exterior just like what is done here:

Can anyone tell me how to go about removing the various parts and what the best materials to use for spraying are?

Also, can i buy these parts from peugeot if it all goes wrong, or I just dont like what i've done...

And thirdly would u recommend against doing this to the car?

Thanks.

Hmmm I can't answer any of your questions, but I'm not sure I like all the interior coloured like that car...not that it matters what I think.

I do like the little bits that are done like the ashtray but not sure about the middle console bit thingy.......in my opinion less is more if you're gonna do this...but what do I know.

You got me thinking about the centre bit now

I'm with Smiler on the "less is more" front I am afraid.

Having said that I think the ashtray and centre thing would look good sprayed silver.

I like the blue on the outside of the car, I'm just not sure on too much of it on the inside.

If it were me, I'd probably do the centre bit including the bit that goes over the radio display (with the hazard button) and I liked the look of the painted surrounds for the actual door latch - contrasted nicely with the aluminium handle.

Wasn't too keen on painting the handle that's embedded in the armrest.

Anything more would be overkill in my humble opinion.

By the way, I reckon he did a great job with the painting. Bloody good for a home job !

Very nice and glossy. The few times I've tried painting at home, I didn't seem to use enough gloss.

People are too scared to be adventurous with their cars anyway. The "less is more" philosophy is why there are so many dull silver cars in this country (no offence to silver CC owners, the CC would look good in a sack)

I would agree on leaving the centre console alone. i would just do the handle pull things, ashtray, glovebox handle and that is probably about it. Depends on the colour though.

I just think the centre console is too big for it and looks daft.
