the only piece i debated on having painted to match my car is the one i have silver now surrounding the MFD.

WTF? Hold up, Doug. What the heck are the words on the cluster? Is there an addable option to have the name of the song you're listening to displayed?...Man, I sound like a newbie, but just don't know what that is or what the name of that upgrade is called (if that is what I think it is).

BTW, color matching the silver pieces would be pretty unique. I'd do it if I had your color!

Back to the subject of color matching, have you thought of doing the exterior door pillars? That might look really good on your car, Doug.

Oh, no wonder. Sprint didn't have any bluetooth phones until now, so I never looked into the phone integration! Man, I knew I should've waited on buying this Samsung i500 (the smallest pda phone at the time it came out).

That's really cool!

Doug,

Here's my sad attempt at doing this with Microsoft Paint. I hate that program, but since I don't use Photoshop for my job, IT couldn't install it for me (even though I'm cool with all the IT guys). I think it looks pretty nice (considering my ghetto paint job). Shouldn't be too expensive either, since these pieces aren't that big.

btw...got the pics from one of your old threads.

Actually, had to search back through older threads. Luckily, my guess/assumption was right that you'd have good (easy) pics to use. You've always got pics backing up your posts

I guess that's why I should get a digital camera

LOL !

Doug,
noticed on your scheduled mods list, you've got the designo gold interior trim.
Good call ! Are you installing yourself, or having Steve do it this time around that he is in Cali ?

Drex, start it up....
FrankW and I had a Bi-X fund set up at one of our meets back in the day...
we collected over $0.67.... until someone stole the collection box with all $0.67 inside

Doug, are the gold trim pieces being mailed to you, or does Steve have them here with him ? If he has them here, check them out first, and see if you like the color, before paying / installing. If not, no biggie... I would trust Wanda's judgment. They probably do look pretty good with Citron. May even be a reason to paint your MFD bezel from silver to gold to match the trim.

I was a little skeptical in the beginning about the colored trim, but I said what the hell. Now that the lava red is installed I would not have it any other way. It totally makes the car IMO. I think that it looks great in Steve's dads car from the pic that he posted.

C230 W204 with C63 Kit Package
2006 set?

Steve, how about the dash trim for 2006 W203? I actually want to replace my current wooden C230 with the aluminum C55. That should include the door panel.

How much that would be?
