Is it difficult to open up that part so that you can paint it?

Default Anyone done this with Steel Blue?

Has anyone done this with Steel Blue? I want to match with the exterior color. But I am not sure if I want to go with generic paint or the dealer paint. If I could see the pictures that would be great.

thanks in advance!

i did...I would not use the spray cans from pep boys or autozone for that color. If it was silver to match the Rubi dash, it would look good. But I have Steel Blue and went to a autobody supply and gave them my paint code off the door tag. Factory match!
