Has anyone plasti dipped their interior im thinking about doing some pieces of the inside red..
any thoughts, comments, or tips?
I did the pillars on both sides of my windshield black and it blends in with my black interior very well (don't have any pics to post ATM, sorry).
If you do decide to do any interior. Best to remove the pieces from the car completely and spray on a clean workbench or something. Getting any of this stuff on your carpet/fabric could be a huge PITA to clean up.
Does plastic dip get scuffed up easily??
no.Quote:

be careful though, do it thin coats, more thin coats rather then fewer heavy coats... that way it will come out nice and smooth rather then lumpy!
I've been thinking of doing everything that isn't black in plastidip. Does it match well with the regular paint?

Did you mean the pillars with the airbags behind them? I was told never to fidget with those when I was installing footwell lighting. How did you manage to get them off without consequence?Quote:

Is he not just referring to the A pillars? I'd like to see pics when you get a chance. If you are in auto you NEED to dip the shift surround. When I'm taking my car back to stock to sell it, that is the one piece I will refuse to take off.Quote:

I have dipped parts of the interior in my truck 2 years ago and still going strong. I clean them with Mothers Protectant and never had an issue.
what's something in the interior worth dippin?
everything, but maybe the dash haha. Id dip anything that wasnt black, but i dont think id dip it personally.Quote:

I agree, looks better and is better long term as far as wear and tear goes, plus the possibilities of patterns are endlessQuote:

I'm in the same boat, I've been wanting to wrap it with CF vinyl for a while now but havent gotten around to itQuote:

Can someone link me to a how to on how to remove the silver dash pieces on the interior please?
Theres an entire how to section on here you can search through - heres a thread with a bunch of how to manuals: http://www.torontomazda3.ca/forum/sh...or-any-DIY-ersQuote:

Hope this helps!
