no, I didn't "have a few" I just suck at typing haha. As for the drag times, I need to find a track myself. The TII is supposed to be able to get mid 15s. We'll see.

So, I went to autozone and picked up a can of dark blue metallic import paint spray can. I went ahead and repainted the ring around my a/c vents and figured out how to take my shifting **** out and re-did that. You can tell the before and after color when you look at the brake button and the shifting ****. You can also see my birthday present, my radar detector and oh...I went ahead and figured out how the rotary accents come out of the seats!!!! they snap in and out so i took those out and painted them IT TURNED OUT NICE!

Eh, fuzzy dice let any car down, IMO. Very nice otherwise.

it came out bad, the tape i used to tape up my shifting ****, left alot of sticky residue on it, i'll have to get some goo gone or something, the paint didn't turn out how i pictured it would. I didn't rush the job I just put on several coats, still it has drip spots, and looks rushed. From the pictures they turned out great, but in person it's not so great. But the color is alot better! maybe i'll fix it but for now it will do.

How do you plan to protect/cover it so that the paintwon't come off in your hand?

BTW: WD-40 might help take the residue off too.

i might try wd-40 whichever is cheaper.

I have to clear coat it when i get some clear coat. but i'm not gonna do that until i get everything painted just right.
