doesnt look properly done..look at that white smear between the light and visor...and look at the edge of the headliner near the door..looks faded out...

Yes the white smear between the visor and light is just reflection form the flash of the camera same with the edge. The only rubmarks are right on in the middle of the drivers side from where it rubbed up against the drivers headrest whrn was putting it back in, and one more somewhere near the rear of the liner.

Should be fine, I would def disconnect the battery first and take out the air bag fuse, just for safe keeping.. Just my

did pesci use gloss paint and 702 use flat black? imo, pesci's fabric looks better.
looks good guys! i saw that paint at advance yesterday and thought about painting my headliner/visors/maplight. Just didnt know how itd turn out.
does it make the car smell like paint?

did mine today.
used 2.5 cans of gloss black and .75 can of flat. My visors were different which made it easier and use less paint. 03's don have the slide out portion.
Needs lots of blue tape too!
