Your answer is too basic. I actually want to know why people think painting random parts to look like cheap plastic, beyond "because its theirs and they can do what they want......." I would appreciate all the 11+ owners not to see what they can mod for $5. this is what civic and 240 owners do. (NOT ALL, just most)

Your assumption is that all of them look cheap but I don't think that's true. Oh well, everyone has their opinions. Last edited by mw1484; 03-14-2013 at 11:17 PM. |

For the window trim, just cover your car fairly well with newspaper and mask it off with blue painters tape. After you have the windows all covered and the body only exposing the trim, you can plasti dip it. I believe that's the best way for the window trim. I'm not so sure about the trunk unless you like that flat black look the plasti dip gives. Then you could just use that as well

People have been asking for more interior shots so here are two quick ones. The second seat is almost done at JPM Coachworks!! Can't wait to get that in.

Is there really no good aftermarket e-brake handle for our cars? I cringe to see keeping the stock plastic one in these beautiful interiors. Although in your case, it's hard to tell in the pic, it looks like yours might be wrapped.

I'm talking about the guys spending thousands of dollars on alcantara wrapped dashes, consoles, aftermarket seats, shift/ebrake boots, etc. and then leaving the stock plastic e-brake handle. There has to be a decent looking alternative.
