I call that $150 paint bill my 'pain and suffering'...

Be careful how you word things in here. They can go in the mind gutter real quick. We are out of control like that.

Lesson learned. Will be on my best behaviour.

Hey!! That's an interesting idea!!! I thought you just bought a new trim kit. I was looking at those and then I got the idea from another forum member to put leather. I have been weighing that option too, but never thought to just tear off the carpet and have them painted. D'Oh!! I'm gonna look into that now!!! Sounds like a good trade for your pain and suffering!!

Even if you were on your best behaviour we would still get you somewhere. We all mess up like that from time to time, and it's hilarious. Just brace yourself we can get out of control in one second, and be boring as heck the next. It's like female emotional rollercoaster in here, but with more guys than girls. Interesting, I know!!

Doing suede is really nice, but not with kids if you wanna keep it clean I bet! Leather upgrade would be pretty costly. Yeah, if you remove the panels and take off the fabric you can clean the glue off with lacquer thinner, then spray them whatever colour you like. Saved me a LOT of money over buying the trim kit, plus I get that "do it myself" feeling that I like so much with my car!

I would like to do mine red but I still want the lighting. I found red ones online for $500. I will probably just kind it stock.

You can do the red with the lighting. They just lay a strip of tape down when they paint it that keeps the lighting showing!
