Default Need help, upholstery and interior work.

Wondering if any one in the dakota world has tackle upholstery before, also if you have could you answer a couple of questions for me about different interior parts and the seats.
1) I bought my self a center console for my truck the color is grey and very ugly, while my interior is redish I could not find a center console with the color match because where I live they are quite rare. So my question is, is there a way to paint of change the color of the center console, to either red or black.

I am giving one question at a time since I have a lot. Also if anyone has a amazing site that talks about it, please I would love the info. thanks.

Yes you can paint it. There are interior paints just for stuff like that. PepBoys usually has a good assortment of paints. As well as Walmart.

If youd look at the sticker on the driver side door jam, It will give you your paint code and you can get an almost exact match in a rattle can, also I use a plastic primer that dries really smooth and white and then you paint over that and works really well good luck
