I just re-did my consol and vents and a few other little areas with Dupli-Color. That stuff dries super fast and is just as easy to put on as any other spray paint. I've heard of people using Krylon paint, But I've heard its hard to use.

Anywho Im not sure how the dupli holds up on the bendy plastic but the center consol and the rest turned out great, Just wish I had bought a few more cans of it to clean up some other stuff.
If your looking to hide scratches and such, This stuff didn't do a thing. But if your looking to re-new the look of the old faded stuff, It did a great job.





That last pic was at night and the flash made everything just sorta pop outta nowhere. But It turned out nice...

my $0.02

p.s. welcome to the boards

the best paint for that purpose is krylon fusion. the downsides of it though are that black is the only color that you might put in an interior, and some people find it a bit too glossy
