make sure you research exacly what you are doing before you start. You don't want to make a mistake as big as that would be.

well i know acouple people that have done it one of them has a name on here if you need it for further advice pm me, but as for the actual paint of like vents, trim and stuff like that it looks really clean but i would clear coat it and stuff like that, a friend of mine as a 240sx that he just started and he used a clear coat, compared to the 90 accords interior the 240sx's paint job on the interior lookes better, its alot shinier.

Do you think the glare will be bad? Cause i have been in a few kids cars where the clare is so bad at times its hard to see the road cause it refects on the windshild?

Or if i am painting it black will that not matter?

I've heard mixed things about that. Just depends how you want it to look. How well its done. One spray can make it all or one spray can end it all.

There's a guy on SHO that just did this and he posted pics of it. He painted the floor carpet in his car and he said it works really well. He also says that it doesnt change the texture on the carpet unless you accidently glob the paint in an area. So if u do decide to do it, just take your time and be patient and post pics at the end! I'm thinking of doing this too. And about the reflectiveness of the dash, I heard that's only a problem when its painted white. Hope that helps. Goodluck
