2016+ dash painted

really thinking about painting the dark gray plastic pieces around the radio, but I’m not 100% sure if I want to do that. Interested in seeing some pics!

 

Color coded to match exterior paint would look nice.

That’s what I was going to do but I would like to see pictures from ppl that have already done it before I do something to my truck that I might not like

 

Derped it, and all you literally do is just pull it off with some force then proceed to un screw the trim. Pull from the right vent area for the center peice and then fron the left vent near the window.

 

Looks good man!

 

Yea it really pops and makes a dull interior come to life.

 

Here are some pics. I highly recommend it and there has been a lot of people do it.

 

Someone already did it in white. Try searching around for a bit

 

Here is one thread about this.

How did you do the steering wheel?

 

And the parts on the doors?

 

Commenting to see this answer

The door consoles just pop up & out, I removed them doing the speaker upgrade. It's very easy to get the piece off, it is just a matter of taping off after that?

 

So for the steering wheel you just taped off the area you painted or did you remove those pieces as well?

 

Did you vinyl wrap everything?

Looks great. I want to vinyl wrap mine.

 

I would pull the steering wheel controls to paint. This thread has a pretty good how-to:

No. I paint matched mine Thank You! Definitely makes the interior look sharp.

 

Easy project.

 

Did you have to completely take apart your steering wheel?

 

Well it’s actually pretty simple. You have two covers, one on each side of the steering wheel. You just pop those off. Inside you have a hex screw that you will loosen and the middle section (horn/Airbag) will come out. It is still connected but all you have to do at that point is unscrew the two side panels and then reattach the middle section until you get the two side pieces painted so you can reinstall them. It’s a pretty easy mod

 

Use a trim panel tool to lift the bezel. Unclip the controls for the windows. Mask off.
