not my cup of tea. however, what did you use to do it....sems vinyl dye? elaborate. also, the speaker enclosure might look better in black as well. i know i kick mine sometimes, so white wouldn't work for me.

Yeah it took a few days got to do some minor touch up sinced i unwrapped them. It looks pretty good for my first time painting haha.
I used the krylon Fusion paint for plastic to my surprise it actually works pretty good, I looked around the forums seen alot of people hate to paint interior but i think it will be some refreshing from the old interior, just have to finish the rest of it now.

I'm personally not a big fan of it, but still good work on doing it yourself.

looks ok. like others have said, the white is gonna get dirty really quick. and i would have left all the buttons unpainted. it looks kind of weird with EVERYTHING painted.

Yeah no peeling so far, i heard that krylon fusion holds up pretty well no stikyness or anything, as long as you clean the parts real good and sand it a little(optional) and add some clear coat your good.
Was going to go with the silver and black at first but changed my mind cause i didnt like the options krylon had more like a darker grey kind of thing, so i just went with the white !
Anyone have suggestions for some gauges? Want to take out the stock ones.

Leave the stock ones and throw in some white LEDS behind them.
