Thanks,

I used a body shop to paint them. Since this was something that I would see constantly, I wanted the experts to do it.

Tules,

That is exactly what I want to do to my MCS. Did you do that yourself? If so what kind of paint did you get and how did you go about doing it?
Thanks in advance
Jonas

NO I didn't my buddy and I did do his in my garage..I don't have any pics...the trick was using Krylon plastic paint and then coating about 5-10 times with laquer....however, I had mine sprayed while my aero kit and CF bonnet were getting sprayed....as long as I took the parts off it wasnt expensive...ofcourse it's hard to find a shop you can trust...the shop I used the owner has an MC40 and is just a darn great guy....

Tuls, how did you get the dash off to paint it? I'm thinking of having this done while my car is in the shop for some other work as well. They'll have the paint, so if I take all the parts off, it shouldn't cost too much.
