I can appreciate what you are considering but it's not something that I'd do. I do agree with Ali - the first design made it easier to picture since it included the layout of the dash.

 

I would encourage you to consider wrapping it since it's removable. Paint can be removed too but it's expensive and far too easy to damage what's beneath.

Craig is right

 

You want to go with Vinyl, don't paint your dash. Of course you're hearing this from someone who glued a CF dash on top of the stock one :biggrin:

This might take a little more time but you could wrap it and then paint the wrap. That way you could remove it. Just a thought.

That's not a bad idea, but before continuing, consider the cost of the wrap, the paint, the effort... then compare to the cost of replacement dash panels. It might not be worth the hassle.

 

I to think it would be neat to paint the dash, it's like a blank canvas staring at us every day!

True, do a cost comparison first, but if you are going to paint it that opens up the possibility of many different options (types of wraps and price points). Heck, you could even do it in canvas or burlap but I would recommend something with a backing to protect the original dash. Oh the possibilities!
