Hey guys.. Got bored with the white dash, so bought a spare one from the wreckers and decided to go with a change and spray it blue.. This is the end result, not too bad for the first time I done this sort of stuff. Makes me want to do even more!

One question, the white part around the speedo's etc, how do I remove that? There's a couple of screws in the top, what else? Feels like there's something in the bottom and left right corners? Didn't wanna pull it too hard as it felt flimsy so thought I'd ask here first! Cheers guys.

looks nice mate. after you undo the screws just place your hands palms up on the upper inside of the surround and pull it towards you it should pop out with a little force, make sure you lower your steering wheel first. good luck

Looks Good. Blue is very bright bold lol. I did mine white, it is a good change from the original.

Mind if I ask how much you paid for the centre console, and did you get everything you've painted in blue for that amount? Am going to pick up the bit around the A/C / Headunit and the ash tray / lighter plastics so I can mould my 7" GPS in there, and wouldn't mind a rough estimate on what I'd be looking at.

Not a big fan of the blue, but well done for doing something different!!

Hey mate. Yeah I got the lot (everything that's been painted) for $20 from the wreckers. :happy:

Yeah I had mine in white before the blue too.. Looked alright, just wanted a change though! Kind of getting over the car, might put it up for sale soon!

The console in white:
