Anyone painted the dash or other interior sections to match exterior of jeep?
I am thinking about painting the center section of dash (same section you put overlays on) to match exterior.

I wouldn`t do it as I think it looks ghetto and cheesy but thats my opinion so no offence to anyone.

I do NOT plan on paintimg it like those pics.
I am considering painting the center panel around the radio and the panels below where the switches and controls are. I would only paint the piece around the radio and the panel below...nothing else.

I would do it for mine, but i already have black plastic. I did, and plan to do more, bring the silver trim from the inside to parts on the outside, only on accents and other small parts, just to blend the black/silver scheme thoughout the car.

None taken...
Be sure to clean each piece first, and if you want it to look nice, wet sand the texture down as far as you can, prime it twice, lightly sand that, then paint it, clear it, and snap the peices back in, each step you leave out will drop the quality of the finished peice, been there, done that, bought the tshirt.

I painted the center stack and the frame around the windshield. I think it should have come that way. Since I took these photos, I also painted the flat parts of the plastic door inserts. I should post some picts of that too soon.

There is a nice looking kit on ebay right now from a seller in Canada. It says it a "Domed Dash Overlay", Automotive Grade, 10 years Experience, UV Protection, Self Adhesive backing, can be removed. Seller "clearview-lensing". They are $89.95 plus $5 shipping. Using the "Search" function I didn't find anyone here that bought them. I was curious about the quality for the price. They have a 100% positive feedback, but I want to see a review! 
Do an ebay search "Jeep JK Wrangler Dash Kit".
