Back when I first go my car I painted the interior trim pieces with that chrome allusion stuff from wal-mart. I finally got completely sick of that so I repainted it all Laser Red and Charcoal mettalic. I think it turned out awesome.

Next on the interior to-do list is floor mats and seats, but that will probably be next summer.

My mom painted the horse on the steering wheel and the Mustang lettering with a brush(she's an artist so she's really good at things like that). It's Laser Red paint without clear, so it looks a little different than the rest of the car.

I will also add that Laser Red paint is friggin expensive!! My friend must get a HUGE discount because he used 2 or 3 pints to paint my engine bay and only charged me $100....I bought the exact same paint at the exact same store and it cost me $109 for one pint! stprorolla, now I see why you went with Redfire!

I was afraid it would be too much color, that's why I did it two-toned. It is a little brighter than I would have liked, but it looks soooooooo much better than before.

All you guys and your spirited interiors. I'm trying to make mine all black and you're adding color.

It does make it nice and personalized.

That's exactly what I want to do with my interior. How'd you get around the a/c vent in the center piece? Looks very nice.

I taped off the a/c vents and sprayed the red, then I removed the tape from the vents and taped off everything that I wanted to stay red and sprayed the charcoal color. Then I removed all the tape and sprayed the clear.

Pretty straight forward. I thought it would be more tricky just taping the vents. But what do I know. Don't they slip out?
