Interior Painting... Nightmare

Well I decided to try and tackle painting my dash and what an experience it has become... I'll let the pictures do the talking...



As of now its primered up and I plan on sanding it down and laying some paint tomorrow.

I'll try to keep you guys updated on how it's coming. Here's a little preview...

Thats a right mess, personally though I would never paint the dash, it can hurt the resale value amongst other things.

Well guys I've finally awaken from this nightmare... Got everything back together and what a sigh of relief it is to see my truck back in one piece. Only one problem, the problem i feared most. extra screws... I have about 6 screws that i have no clue where they came from or where they go. Although I must have taken about 40 out so 34 out of 40 can't be too bad haha. Anyway, heres the good stuff.











Opinions?

LOOKS GOOD!! haha something that would have added a little flair would have been to paint the trim piece inside the instrument cluster.
