    Painting Dash and Grill

    Hi Guys got a vectra b with grey interior. Firstly, Not really keen on the grey interior so was thinking of painting the dash black. Ive never done anything like this before so how would I go about it.

    Secondly was also thing of painting the upper grill as well again how would I go about it, would I need to remove the chrome from the grill or just mask it as best i can.

    Thanks in advance

    plenty of plastic primer, rubbing between coats.

    For about £60 you could get hold of a complete Vec B black interior including dash and all other black panels. Pop over to vvoc.com as there always loads of Vec B's being broken on there. I wouldn't recommend you paint the dash as no matter how much primer you use it'll only start coming off in a short space of time. The only way to do it properly would be to get it flocked.
