J-Dub's Build Thread - SouthSlap Demo Tahoe

[J-dub]

Made some progress this weekend. Didn't get finished until late today though.
Painted the rear vent caps, mirror caps, and dash bezel white. Also installed my Pioneer DD 3200.
Here's a picture of the bezel and HU. I'll get some pictures of the outside soon.
EDIT: The dash also has a metallic clear coat and glimmers in the sun. But I sprayed it flat white so it would not have a glare. Turned out great

Looks familiar.

Indeed it does, lol. I really want to redo it sometime and do the insert spots in a glassy black with the metallic clear. Just didn't have the paint yesterday

 

[killer20072001]

I need to redo mine it is starting to crack. Im probably going to to black this time, but with adhesion promoter.

I hit it with the air sander. Sprayed adhesion promoter, then black primer, then sanded, then 3 coats of flat white, then 3 coats of metallic clear. Hopefully it sticks for a while at least. I'm dropping the money and ordering my carpet today. Any suggestions on color?? Charcoal? Black?

 

[07Burb]

IMO, I'd go with charcoal

 

[killer20072001]

Id go black but either way would be sweet. 1000th post FTW!

 

[J-dub]

torn and in between! lol

And congrats! I'm just waiting to hit 80 so I can post some stuff. Ha!

Nothing like helping make a decision when the two outsiders giving input don't even suggest the same thing! Either way you go will look good with what you already have going on with your interior....

 

[J-dub]

Exactly! Haha
I'd like black as well, but EVERYTHING shows up on black
