Hey Prosport or anybody else i have a question about paint.I cant decide what color to paint my dash body color or Black and if i paint it black would you go satin black or gloss black?

Satin black on the dash. I used Rustoleum textured satin black on mine. Very close match to the factory paint that was on the dash. HTH Beep Thanks For the info Beep. That was the brand of paint i was going to get. going to use it to paint the floor,trunk floor and under the dash.
