Yes Rick it was a LOT of work. The cool vanilla cars did not have the body color for the gauge surround or the airbag cover. It was a pewter / silver color. I didn't really want to get into removing the airbag cover so I found a set of the molded covers on-line in the burlwood pattern, sanded them down, primed and painted them vanilla. Then they just mounted over the stock pieces with good ole' 3M tape. Of course the center console I just pulled out and painted. I also did the shifter surround and shifter ball. There were a few car colors that had that silvery color dash panels rather thanbody color including my taupe. And I did the same thing. I painted them then had them pinstriped then I clear coated and installed.

Mine is currently Inferno Red with a Deep Cranberry hood, a primered bumper and primered driver side front fender. HOPE to have it painted in the near future. It will be all Inferno Red when done. Well, maybe a little chrome in places too.

Don't think thats gonna happen Rocky. Becky has a choke collar on me so I can only get away with minor stuff.
