What about the plastic sections, more specifically the control panels for windows/mirrors, hazard light button, stereo knobs etc.
I know you can do these with plastic primer and acrylic paint etc, but what about all the little lights and details/decals. If you were to just paint over them you wouldnt be able to see them!




I didn't do those items for the same reasons you've just outlined ....I'll just wait for something to come my way from a wreck....

Yes you can got from Spruce to Tan.

With regards to the plastic bits I dyed those as well and came up great with the exception of the door skirt trim .... they just didn't take.

If your wanting to go tan then you can obtain most of the plastic items from people like Jeff Harper or wreckers and so on.....tan is not that hard to find.

I think its important for all to know that there is no substitute for original coloured leather and vinyls . Re-Dying is a great alternative if done correctly but the expectation should not be the same as having it factory coloured.
