    Maybe replace the headunit, don't paint it. Spray the centre console blue maybe so it matches the seats [did you mean the centre console not the headunit?]. What are the door cards and seats you have got by the way as they are pretty much what I am lookng for as a temp replacement for my interior.

    you could paint your centre console, air vent surround and speaker grills blue. I have done this and IMO looks great. i will post some pictures for you to see later.

    you've got me all confused
    which bit should i replace?
    the cards and the seats are just what came with it, standard furio stuff i think
    Thanks danny, ill keep an eye out for it

    You don't need to replace any of it, just put it apart and paint it up. Would look nice in blue in my opinion.

    Could get some plasma style dials, or change your LED's behind your current dials, would look smart.

    k so you've done centre console? speaker grills? the vent bits?
    all with one can or would i need more then one?

    i had to use two cans of paint and primer but only because i had to redo my speaker grills because i messed them up.
    but i think one can should do it.
    just don't be stingy with it, do enough coats and if it takes two cans then do it.
    also make sure you take your time.

    Also you could spray the bit by the dials, the surround bit. I cudn't be bothered though, may do it one day when i can.

    I see you have the plastic door inserts instead of fabric/velour in there why not rub them down mask off the surround & spray them Blue.

    Never actually done it myself so not to sure if its a hard job fitting the dials. Couple of people have replaced the LED's though, have a look at predator_VTR progress thread, think its abit fiddly but not a mega hard job to do.

    I also sprayed my centre console and vents, makes the interior look abit more fresh. Have a look at my progress thread for some pics.
