MIssing paint on dash buttons
Hi there,
this one I admit it is quite a small detail. Anyway, since it bothers me alot and I will correct it anyway, I ask the question to ensure I do it the best way. The buttons inside my car has much paint removed, probably because the previous owner was Freddy Krueger or something like this :) Anyway, I want to correct this visual horror. I already corrected my window controls (ordered a new one and I replaced it). But for this one, I am unable to find a new dash control module (not sure of the name of that). How would you proceed if you had to repair this? Would you have the buttons individually removed (and how!) or you would somehow paint directly? http://img26.imageshack.us/img26/9628/buttonsx.jpg Probably not of interest for many of you though!! |
Re: MIssing paint on dash buttons
I've never seen buttons so worn, I don't know of any fix for that but a lot of members here have great idea's and may be more help to you on this one. I think replacing the module might be the only fix. I will ask my friends and see if have any suggestions.
Good luck |

Re: MIssing paint on dash buttons
the new control module is around $900. I can link you it if you'd like?

Re: MIssing paint on dash buttons
Ohhh no way lol 900 is too much. I like DIY's so ill try it. I just need the right paint.
So many things to fix. 1. glove box 2. paint 3. t/c button 4. fan relay 5. power steering (doing that now) The previous owner treated the car like an . |
Re: MIssing paint on dash buttons
what are you going to do about the glovebox? one of my hinges broke the other day, and the same thing happened to my old one a couple of years ago.

No need to hijack the painting dash buttons thread. There's already a glove box fixing thread. |
