Yes painted over.
Im going to scratch away the paint covering the lights.
For the lettering, I'm going to print a stencil that says "CLIMATE" and paint it in white. The other one will be fiberglassed over some day since I have an aftermarket HU.

I'm thinking it's going to need a clear coat tommorow or sunday though.

Oh, ok. Thanks for the reply. I wasn't sure what most people did about the ***** and the text when they swapped/painted their interiors.

That's what I was originallygoing to do, then I took everything apart, sanded it, and realized I only had Rustoleum. So I said, **** it, and went with that.

I have the same wheel/bag with Birdseye maple from the SC430. What's your idea for the rest of the wood around your dash? Are you going to Hydro or find a close vinyl wrap color? I think I found a solution if you need tips.

Your using the 3M Di-NOC vinyl right? IIRC I've seen pics of your interior. Not sure what to do yet, I may just wrap the rest of the wood in Carbon Fiber and leave the wheel.

Car is in the shop this week for mantinence, next week she should go to get reupholstered/Dyed.
Did the rear deck in suede before she went in however. Very pleased, pics when she gets out of the shop.

Other news: I have found what I'm going to do for the woodgrain!



It's 3M Di-Noc, but it's imitation stone. There are also many other stone options:http://www3.3m.com/dmrweb/servlet/Al...umPassword=mmm

Thoughts?
