Anyone had their dash pieces painted?

[ben g]

My dash panels are brushed aluminium, complete with scratches and a dent (previous owner must have been an animal).

I did have them vinyl wrapped but removed it, so now I want them sprayed either sterling grey or piano black.

Has anyone else had this done? I know painting prices can be all over the place, but what sort of figure should I be looking at for the 3 bits, prepped and painted?

Also, any finished pics of yours would be appreciated. Especially if different colours. Cheers.

Could I ask why you removed the vinyl? And what stuff you used to do it?

I had mine done last year some pics on the thread below, I paid 120 but it shouldnt cost you any more than that 70 would be about right. My trims were piano black to begin with but poor condition. Good luck with it

Neil with the orange zed had his painted the same orange also.

I wrapped mine in alcantarra. Loved the look and feel. Cost was about £100 for the alcantarra bought direct from the importer.

Just got bored of it. I prefer glossy finishes also.

I used 4D carbon wrap on ebay.

Carbon dip them mate, look great

I'm not too keen on the way the carbon fibre weave looks from hydrodipping. Reminds me of a chain.

Heres a pic mate, I painted them myself but I'd expect it would be around £100 to have done by a bodyshop
