Hi
Can anyone recommend a good place to have the interior trim painted in S. CA? Preferably some place that has done it before. Thanks

Andy, that looks soooooo clean. I love it! 
I am sure that the pictures don't do it justice because you can't see the depth in the paint. I am not a fan of my woodgrain interior either. This is not my everyday drive, so... do you think I can just remove my current trim and have it painted? Or was there something unique to the E-bay set you bought that made it more conducive to painting? If not... I may just go for the CF overlay from Bimmian.

did you ever do the doors?
the would trim in my car is the only thing i dont like about it. i have GOT to get rid of it... I can get the aluminum for about $600... im curious if i should just buy the aluminum or get mine painted sapphire black to match the exterior of my car... or is that too PT Cruiserish?
