contemplating ripping the C/F off and painting interior

[nikon]

well guys whatcha think??....this is what it looked like new


looked great, now however...it looks like garbage, it may not....but in my eyes it does, simply because I'm getting tired of it



notice how its not as shiny anymore?....


So, I was thinking, rip all of it off smooth it all down and paint it....since I have the whole black sheme in my interior now I was thinking a very high gloss black, or maybeeeeeee, even a red to accent the red tubing in my seats....I just didnt want to overdo it with red for it is a very powerful color.....so tell me what you guys think....I need some ideas....and if you need to see what Im working with click my updated pics, theres a few pics of my new interior ;) ......

c'mon looch, I know you got somethin for me ;)

I personally like the c/f look. A friend of mine had a problem with his not looking "shiny" anymore, so I used some Mothers Plastic Cleaner on it and it brought back the original look.

That's true, but technically so are your stripes man [img]smile.gif[/img] They still look good though.

BTW, checked out your page ... NICE RIDE man. Like it alot.

Bottom line is, it's your car so do what you think is best :D

You can get CF molded interior....RKSport has it and it looks real nice.

i have the same CF peices in my ride, but i also painted the A/C vents, and the trim around the radio, and the rear speaker grills. there is a pic on my cardomain page of the painted trim, i dont think it will show the CF though.

Paint it.

paint it, but take the time to spend the cash and get the color matched to your car, not just any old red

how well do the stickers fit on there? are they peeling? can you readily tell theyre stickers? i think if you paint... black, or maybe a metallic black would be cool. Check out whiteshark's ride for pics of that color. i think you could get away with keeping the carbonfiber if it doesnt look too fake.
