i have found after a few trys that the paint at canadian tire called vinyl interior paint is quite good, just dont go overboard and allow it to dry completly before trying to put it back into the car...they have interior fabric paint too...

its ing garbage, please listen to me, im gonna save you alot of problems later on, in my previous car the guy I bought it from a guy who painted the interior white, COMPLETLEY WHITE, now the paint after staying outside for a while begins to get really chippy and soft it dissinigrates, I could of put my finger on it and when i take my finger off a piece would be missing, it also smells like , and never stops smelling, the paint has been on for a year before I bought the car and it still smelled like fresh vinyl paint when i got it.

If you mean the vents my friend did it and he had problems with them moving around... paint was put on thick and the moving parts got all screwed up. If you are gona paint the vents I would say sand and primmer then maybe a little clear coat over them too. It will be tricky good luck bud! post pics when its done so people can tell you how horible a person you are!

i think its cheesy... iv done it before.. dont use the vinyl color it DOES stink... krylon plastics paint is good... and just some ordinary duplicolor is good... make sure you lightly scuff the pieces first.. and be sure to scuff the ENTIRE piece that your painting.. as it WILL chip....... and never be afraid to use a little primer... a LITTLE haha.... never over do it

nothin... just like i said make sure you scuff the out of the piece..... only thing clear coat will do is make your interior pieces shiny as hell... all depends on the look your going for..... limit your coats, you dont wanna over clear it, or itll look like

i'll go with others and say Krylon Fusion for your plastic pieces, its works pretty well but still fairly easy to chip off.

i have painted my protege 5 trim pieces with horrible results some clear coats react bad with certain paints especally silver metalic paints... my advice is saveyour origanal pieces and catch some used pieces from the scrapyard first paint them and fit them inyour car
