i have a RR EX coupe and i am thinking if painting some interior pcs. RR to match the exterior. these pcs. being the door handle, vol. controls, hand brake etc. basically all the current grey pcs. to red. i was also looking into the raven bodykit...anybody agree on it? and i am also looking for some all black wheels with some red on it to match paint. it is very hard to find but if anyone has seen some..please post. a chop would be wonderful but not nessecary. thank you

the only wrong with it is that the paint will run off and then look not so good.

if you paint the knobs, ebrake, and the other pieces that you handle a lot, would there be a chance for it to chip and/or wear? Just a thought

The interior has the potential to look really w/ the red accents.

Not a fan of the raven body kit( I would kill for the tein kit)

I think konig just came out w/ a wheel that has paintable inserts, go check it out.The hot swap

the interior i was going to have done professionally, and plus i keep my car CLEAN so im sure i would always have some protective armorall on it...hopefully itll stay. i guess ill ask the shop. i have seen some black wheels with chrome lip that i like but i hate the chrome...can i get that painted/powdercoated red?

i dont think you should paint the interior...but thats up to you and i say +2 for the time attacks and a big NO on the konigs..yuck

1. There's a special paint you can buy online to paint your interior with, theres a thread around here somewhere on here, I think its called "interior color change," or somethin like that. But if you can, try to stay away from highlighting areas you touch alot, as the paint will eventually wear.
2. Time attacks are nice but way too expensive.
3. Raven body kit doesnt flow with the civic's body imo, go with the hfp kit.
