Default Painting the interior of my neon.

Hey guys,
I want to paint my interior of my neon but I kinda need an ideal. I like the colors candy apple red, black, and white. Not so much on the white though. Anyone has ideals, pictures they would like to share. Oh yeah before I forget, what kind of paint would you suggest I use. Thanks a lot you guys.
Aloha,
Ryhorn

I used silver and black with mine, I used 180 grit sand paper for it, I also did my back seat like that too with fabric from walmart, it came out real nice. Ive seens real nice cany apple red and gloss black pictures. I have pics of my interior process around here some where If I can find them I will show you

I painted mine a carbon metalic silver, just parts of the dash (guage cluster cruse controll cover air bag cover (passg side) glove box heater/ac cover) I like the way it looks. Not a real dramatic change from the stock black but enough to be noticed. I also clear coated mine. I did everything with a rattle can but when I actually get my car painted I'll match the interior with an airbrush.

Sand it with some fine sand paper and use a plastics paint. You can get some cans in autozone or pepboys, home depot sells a paint by krylon. If you don't see any colors you like look for an automotive paint store and they can mix you any color from white to a candy apple pearl for plastic.
