Default Orange Crush Interior Mod

I am planning on painting the vents and door panels orange in my Wrangler. Anyone with a Crush Jeep that's already done this?

Not a crush but will give you a look at it with the orange accents.

What kind of paint did you use?

Tastefully done, looks good. Ideally you should use a paint designed for plastics however that's not alwalys available in our colors. You can use standard enamel or urethane by applying light coats. Applying a heavy coat may allow the solvents to soften the plastic damaging them. There are new waterbased basecoats that may reduce this and available at local paint and body supply stores. They use a standard poly urethane clearcoat.

Thanks guys! I used a regular hobby grade rattle can paint of the shade I wanted. Then clear coated everything a satin finish. Light coats and patience. I used a toothpick to detail the grab bar. The vents come apart so they were easier. Good luck with it!
