black 01 1.8t.. any suggestions?

[turbug01]

I want to do a number of diy mods on turbug!
I want to spray paint my wheels, vw emblems, door panels (right underneath the windows), and maybe the center dash piece.
I would like some suggestions on what color I should do.
I have an old Waterfest 09 scarf hanging from my mirror that's the euro vw emblem colors, and I bought blue paint that matches.
however, now that I'm looking at the black and blue side by side... I don't think it would look as nice.
after much debate, I was thinking I would paint my stock alloys black with a metallic turquoise on the inner part of the rim.
then just use that same metallic color on the emblems, and inside the car.
so I guess first off, what are your opinions?
and secondly, anyone wanna give me some tips on painting the inside of my nb??

do whatever mods YOU think will look good. if you like it, then dont worry about what other people think. she's yours. and you're paying for it.

butttt... the painting of the rims isnt that hard. idk about painting used rims. i've only painted new ones. so i think you would have to degrease them and pressure wash them or something to make the paint look clean... might wanna ask my hubby raymondlee about the used rims he did his one day when i wasn't home




the door panels aren't that hard either. i just kept putting them off. basically if you want it to be really nice lines and stuff, take a dremmel to the back of the door panels where the plastic welds are holding them together, get the gunky stuff off the top of it, sand it, prime, paint, clear and let it dry for about a day. then use a hot glue gun to put the welds back together and re install Its really easy.




the center dash piece isnt that hard either, just search for a thread on here on how to get it out, get the gunky stuff off and repeat the steps from the door panels. I'm actually about to re do mine. because i was going to do tan but i switched to pink so its getting re done.



idk anything about the emblems.. i just wanna shave mine anyways.

but turquoise and black would look really nice have fun with it
