[Mk2] [NA] Dash panels respray what colour?

[Dan89]

Hi all after my introductory post I thought I'd ask for your opinions. The inside of my car needed a refresh so after getting full leather seats and new black gear gaitor, my attention has been turned to the dash parts. These had been sprayed silver but are showing signs of tiredness so need redoing. I've got it to 3 colours, gloss black, gunmetal grey or White to go with the car exterior. But now I can't decide so what do you think? Cheers

Source some stock panels and refit them dude. In the past I've had my dash sprayed red then black then silver. Nothing beats the stock trim mate

However if you still want to go down the painted route, then do it gloss black

[Dan89]

Hm yeah that's true prob cost about same but was after something abit different from stock. Also on a side note where, apart from a dealership can I get a stock gear shift brand new if anywhere? Tried eBay and various other sites via google but to no avail.

Cheers for replys, pics were helpful and now it's looking like gloss black unless someone has pic of gunmetal dash?

[fearless]

painted mine same colour as car 746, just been repainted and laquered in 2k paint after 2 years as a bit dull and was only done in aerosols first time round much better job this time.

mine is done in gun metal ,centre console,around combination meter & trims around electric window switches can take more pics if you need any

[Dan89]

Cheers they do look good but I think the gloss black would suit best for me.

for those that wanted to see it

Where can I get a set of those?

[jasongtr]

buy the 3m carbon wrap and its a DIY job

[randomher0]

okay, been looking for those in real carbon everywhere, but I'm starting to lean towards just wrapping mine too

[jasongtr]

the 3m stuff is great, textured like dry carbon fibre too

[randomher0]

yeah, i've heard it's the most realistic fake, but if I could find some real ones I would go for those!

[jasongtr]

carbenfibre are looking into doing some i understand

[randomher0]

Well I hope he makes them, both RHD and LHD, I know a lot of mr2 owners who would love to have them in their car.
