Default Body-colored interior?

I'm just curious how some of you go about painting certain interior parts the color of the exterior. I've seen some pics of DB interiors, and LMS interiors.

Do you paint them yourself? If so what do you use, a sprayer? Also...what kind of paint?

Thanks.


I'm thinking about doing this in my car...a few select areas around the dash/doors, the strut bar cover....

You might have to worry about mad glare too since you probably want it cleared with high gloss clear.

I will be having my center consoles painted to match the car this fall once I decide on a new exterior color.
