Interior Trim Paint - Factory look/feel

1227 Views 9 Replies 5 Participants Last post by  1BAD02RT
Hello All,

I bought a 3-gauge pod for my Stratus and nee dto mold it to the stock pillar....with fiberglass, j.b. weld, bondo, etc. Anyhow, once it is finished, I want it to look like factory, with a "wrinkle" black finish. Where can I get paint to match my black interior, and still have a stock look? I am willing to remove and paint the other pillar if it's not exact, but want to to have a stock look. What do you guys suggest?

Do you know which brand and what finish it's called? And does it look like factory? If possible, I'd like someone to post pictures of the paint they used and how it turned out. That would help me out alot!
Duplicolor makes a good interior trim paint. Just go to your local auto store and you'll find it. Aslong as you sand smoothly and clean the parts the finish should come out nicely.

Wait a minute.. I don't follow.

Those things are black and wrinkled to begin with. Pull off your OEM pillar and replace with the new pillar. Otherwise, you have some options with me. Look at Interior Painting at http://store.sc-customs.com

I can match any color.

He has one of those ebay pods that you have to screw into the stock pillars.
I have the triple pod that came from glowshift. I was told that the Stratus and Eclipse share the same pillar, but the fitment is horrible. Also, the finish on the pod is a gloss black wrinkle where the stock pillars are semi-gloss or flat. I trimmed the triple pod and used jb weld to attach it to my stock pillar. Now I want to blend it to the stock pillar and paint it to match the interior. Very clean look like evrything else on my ride.

If I decided to send it out, I would probably then get it painted Ice Silver to match my exterior. Just a thought, how much would you esitmate to blend/paint the left and right pillars factory silver? PM me and maybe we can work something out. Also curoius what the turnaround on a job like this is.

That's why, its glowshift. :(

Get one from LoTek: http://www.gaugepods.com/ , those will directly replace your entire pillar.

Otherwise, if you want to do both pillars, $120+return shipping. Turn around is approximately 1 week from when I receive them. If this will work, email [email protected] and I will provide shipping instructions, payment options, etc.
Do they make these one-off, and don't have stock for specific cars? Am wondering if it's be easier to buy one from them than to build my current one.
