I wouldn't do it, the plastic expands and contracts too much under the sun, you'd just end up with spider webbed paint.

Everything in the car is flat black and i honestly hate that the dash is a milky gray. does anyone sell a good flat black dye?

besides the car is always garaged and is never out in the sun unless it's at the track. even then it's under a EZ up to keep it cool inside.
