Interior Trim Paint?

[jimbrem007]

has anyone replaced or repainted the trim piece around the heater controls and cup holder??...i have a 98 sc300 and i was hanging little "air freshner trees" from the cup holder on the dash and i guess the oil from the tree's caused the finish to bubble up and peel off of my trim!!!...this sucks cause the car is 100% besides this......i've seen the trim piece for sale, but they all need refinishing....any idea's???.....i was wondering if any companies make that piece in matching factory woodgrain??...any help would be appreciated

I think its pretty common. I had the same problem with mine, so I just replaced it with a new one.

jimbrem007', Check out what this Sc owner did to his wood trim, he repainted the trim Gunmetal. It looks really nice.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. :o

Oh well... To each his own. I wouldn't dream of covering up the one feature of the interior that speaks "luxury" - the genuine wood trim. Especially when so many other car makers are using the fake stuff. But, hey, whatever you do, 'make it yours'.
