Default Interior Glossing

I saw a thread in this section where someone glossed all the aide plastic(goes around back speakers)in thier Trans Am...I was wondering if anyone else had done this and how expensive and time consuming it was.


Oh, and if anyone knows anything super cheap I can do to spice my interior up, post it here, please!


Thanks, everyone.

Its very time consuming, bc what they did was sanded down the parts and actually painted them. I believe clearcoated them also to give them that really shiny look. Also it wouldn't be to expensive to do it if you had a friend in the painting business that could hook you up on a small amount of clearcoat and paint.

Thanks for your response.


Time isn't TOO much of an issue, seeing as I'm a high school student on Summer vacation.


I'd love a writeup if anyone has one, along with any other interior work.

i think if you are going to refinish your interior then you should cover the panels in vinyl. theres a thread in the appearance section from not too long ago. i'll try and find the link.
