a/c vent on the far right side of the dash. not the triangle one, but the rectangle one. and also, how do you take out the glove box handle?

 

bumpity bump bump

 

when ever I do a Max (painting) I just pop off the plate then I tape and shield and paint the vent in the car. and the other piece im not sure no one else has ever wanted that painted in a max that ive done.

 

painting my pieces right now. letting them dry actually. so far looks pretty good but i think i bought the wrong color paint. the blue is too dark. i'll post pics when i'm done.

 

i left my passenger side vent in and painted it with a brush the rest i sprayed...they all look the same though...

 

i'm redoing all mine, i'm sanding them smooth now so that there's no bumpity bump bumps on 'em.

N34JZ, how do you pop out the plate?

 

with a flat head. heres some pics I just did mine between posts no lie, I'm a pro. It looks good I painted the vent gunmetal like the rest of my dash and the plate red (Im getting red carbon fiber so its covered but it looks hot now.)

 

I wasnt gonna bother with this on my max but you just got me to do it. thanks. lol

atulb84 was my advice any good? oh yeah if anything gets messed up while you are re installing it just spray a Q-tip with paint and do a touch up.

 

the red looks really bright in the pic but its actually body color that I had mixed up at a body shop. I was also heating the pieces with a blow dryer as I was doing it.

 

wow, that's nice. thanks bro

 

when youve done like 15-20 dashes you get good. post pics when yours is done.

did you ever get the price I gave you on those rims?

 

pictures are at walmart right now

yes i did, but my friend's dad hooked me up with his friend who works at a place where i can get stock rims cheap, so hopefully i can get some 2000 maxima wheels or something, and they powdercoat too.

 

tight people have powdercoated wheels

 

how did you get red inside

 

first of all, i guess you already finished now, but if not, i haven't done it yet, i'm actually going to paint it this week/weekend after i get my body painted, but i'm pretty sure the right vent comes out like the other ones, just throught the glove box, and i am assuming it will be a pain.

also, why did you use a blowdryer on it when you were painting? does that help? if so, how?

 

very carefully

let's just say i had some time on my hands and the inside part was handpainted...

 

i used a heat gun...i'm so damn impatient that i couldn't wait for them to dry to apply multiple coats..

 

I use it because when youve done alot you learn to spray real light coats and like chris said I'm also impatient and I use it to dry the paint between coats. At my shop I have and use a heat gun but at my house I had a blowdryer. and yes the vent comes out when you take of the panel between the door and glove box (many screws) I didnt bother because the dash kit im getting covers both of those pieces (glove box and piece next to it.

heres a pic of a mirage I did, those pieces were a pain in the *** to get out.
