had the week off from work...got bored, so i went to Home Depot and picked up some Krylon Fusion (silver hammered) paint...here's the finished pieces!

i also did the two arm rests on the back doors...i'm pretty happy with the results...next i plan paint the part that were already silver to match!

where did you get the hand grenade shifter?

I got it at Autozone. It's made by Pilot.

i've gotten a couple of questions as to what the Hammered finish looks like up close, well for all those wonderers here's a nice tight shot!

if there are any other questions feel free to ask!

Sorry I've been away for a while... The only prep I did was wipe every piece down with rubbing alcohol to remove any dirt or oil. Then I tied a piece of fishing line to the back of each piece and hung them from the roof of my garage. I did this mainly to make them easier to spray all over without repositioning.

They've been holding up great. No flaking or chiping, the paint itself is more like a plastic powder coat than a paint. If that makes any sense. I think I paid $5 for it at home depot, but you can also find it at walmart or other hardware stores. I did all the armrests on the doors plus the plastic around the radio with only one can. The main thing is just to take your time.

is it a can, like spray paint? or do you paint it on with a brush?

it's in a spray can!
