Anyone know a good body shop that will paint my interior console and gauge pod. I live in the Tampa/St Pete Area. If anyone knows one, it would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have a number for him so that I can just ask a few questions. Or could you just ask him how much to paint the interior console Red and the Gauge pod Red. Thanks

i highly recommend C&G's Custom Body here in Jacksonville...

i got the octane front on my car....ask anyone how bad the fit is...but look at my car, they worked a miracle with the crappy fitments of my front, r2 sides, and trd rear..

paint&installation -----> $700

no one here in jax has seen my car yet so they cant vouch for it...and i dont have a digital camera yet so im not able to show anyone else...sorry guys...

Fin... here's an idea...

take the parts off BEFORE You get there... have him sand it and spray it... and it'll probably be cheaper...

i'm gonna get my center console sprayed too... if you want, we can both go over there... maybe get a group rate:naughty:

Jotan, I'm in. Let me know what date is good for you. How about we drive over there for lunch some day and have someone drive us back to our places of work. I can ask my co-worker.

we can just take off the panels... and drop it off... it would be done by the time we get out of work...

hey i might be in too. i need the center piece, and also, i want to do the black piece around the gauges, and also the bezel piece inside that goes around the gauges. hey, i also have a hoodscoop on the way from TRD-GT and i need that done too. and while i'm at it, maybe even my engine plastics. so i might definately be in on this. pm me about when, because i don't want to miss this.
