Did you use the Krylon green interior paint? I want to do mine, but in silver like doodsmack. I may get my paint from a body shop. There is a paint hihoslva recommended. It's SEM paints.
No we just bought paint from autozone... primered them painted them a few coats and then clear coated them a few coats. I dont remember what color I used but its pretty damn close to the exterior of my car. Definatly a nice touch I think.
How long is the process including drying out (all three steps)? I guess I could drive around with missing parts for a while. I'd rather do it right than screw it up and have it redone again. I haven't seen green before and hope you don't think I was putting it down by saying I want silver. Green is different and if it matches the exterior than that makes it look custom. I guess I could always leave mine black and say it matches the exterior!:p:
But that would be boring!

I have the peice on the floor board that surounds the trunk and gas pop painted. I also have the little peice that holds the driver side floor mat down painted. I thought about painting other things... but then I realized I was going paint crazy. I think its a nice touch with those few peices painted. I think anymore would be a bit much
and yes you are right, the pics arent very clear.. someday when I get a GOOD camera I might get some good pics up here
I too need a camera. I have been going to my parents house and borrowing my dad's camera to take snaps of stuff done to the car, uploading them and then emailing them to my house which is quick with his DSL, but slow as molasses for me to download on my 56K screaming modem! I just try to upload and update my SoundDomain site from their house since they have the speed that takes half the time as it would if I did it.

Talk about going paint crazy. I have done all the door panels, and within the next couple of weeks I will be doing the entire dash. In case you care here is a picture of the door panel I have done.
