Wadaya think it will cost?

Hey all,
I am curious what you think it will cost to have all the silver pieces in the cab of my truck painted or line-x'd?

These are the center dash piece (stereo surround), the opposite end dash pieces that hold the a/c balls, the center console, all four door handle baskets.

I would normally do it myself, but I am thinking since they need to be taken out, sanded, primed, painted and such it would be worth it to have someone do it if it wasnt much. (since I know the door handle buckets will probably be a pain in the arse).

I know Line-X is pretty thick and there may be some fitment issues. Someone on one of the forums did them and had some issues. Also each line-x shop is independently owned so shop around for the best price!

Well it doesnt have to be line-x it could just be paint.
What do you think the painting would cost?

when i took my grill in, they said i went overboard when i de-chromed it. saying for LineX, it doesnt need to really be prepped for it. i dont know if that is truely accurate.. but... also for my grill is cost about $150.

they will ask if spacing is an issue. i think if you were somewhat detailed in the information, and the shop is good at what they are doing.. you might not run into too many issues. the LineX can be trimmed down (when warm) or sanded down to help fit.

i am kinda curious what a lineX dash, and center console would look like......

i have seen pics of the cargo area plastic lineXed.. and its not bad at all.. just havent seen a dash and boobs and center part.

I think our man GuruError did that to his
If not I know someone on this forum did.

I just want to paint them or something since they look so worn.
The rest of the interior looks great.... then you see those things and it really brings it down

Just rattle can them, no point in spending tons of cash to have them sprayed with a gun. Spend a good amount of time on the prep then start spraying away! There's always water transfer too if that's something you're interested in.
