Painted Interior Trim Red

What are your guys thoughts on how it came out? The pictures make it look more orange than it looks in person. The silver pieces that didnt get painted red were the speaker rings, stering wheel controls, and a small aluminum strip to the left of the steering wheel which I couldn't get off to paint. But anyway the only reasons I painted them was because there were scratches everywhere on them and I was getting bored with the interior

That's pretty nice. I personally like the aluminum look but mind right now is wrapped in cf. but it it's easily removable. But if mine was all scratched up I would def think of painting it. Good DIY.

I can admire the effort, but i would've just carbon fiber vinyl wrapped it so i can take it off in case i want to sell the car in the future.

Looks different, but in a good way! I wouldn't paint mine, but if you like it that's all that matters!

To me it clashes with the orange lighting, but props to you for a quality job.

What steps do you take to paint those parts? Not looking to paint my interior (I have the beige interior, so it would just look weird), just wondering how you got the parts to look so glossy. Looks good!

Looks good, you should paint the aluminum on the steering wheel red too, I think it would really complete the look
