tbh, if you do mess up, which is unlikely, its not the end of the world.. its a good excuse to purchase a red dash... XD
I'm sure it's not cheap to buy new one not to mention I was talking about messing it up with the airbag going off if the airbag messed up it would cost you thousands of dollars

Just lightly sanded down with fine sandpaper and primed.. then one can of mojito and one can of clear.. If I was going to do it again, I would use two cans of clear..
Is it possible to do this without taking the dash apart? Careful masking and prep?

I wouldn't.. the masking wouldn't be perfect and wouldn't wanna spray inside the car..

Just picked my panels up from the bodyshop. Best $112 ever spent. Can't wait to get them installed!

Tell me more about all of this.....Most places in Seattle are quoting about 5x this to take off the panel, paint, re-install.

Taking them off is about a 45 min process. there are a few posts on here that detail exactly how to do it.

I had a mechanic friend take my panels off and reinstall them, so I only paid for

How did you add the red piping to the dash?

Some people have it, some don't. Look at the other photos here. Think it comes with leather. I do not have it.

Just finished putting my dash back together. Figured since I had it apart I would do some airbrushing as well. The airbag cover just looked a little to plain, like a blank canvas.
