Theres apparently clips on the back...if you just slide a flathead screwdriver in there and gently pry you should be able to unclip them..im pretty sure thats how you take em out

What do you guys used to paint the inside of the cars?

spyder8213 · September 30th, 2008, 09:42 PM

Regular spray paint with clear coat. Just gotta sand it right and use a good sandable primer.

yep thats exactly right

Wet sanding is the best way to go. My bathtub gets a nasty ring when I'm painting. It's the best place to fit big pieces.

JUZ10xD · October 2nd, 2008, 05:36 PM

Nick · October 2nd, 2008, 05:40 PM

what's gives it the smoothness, the sandable primer?

Asian Cracker · October 2nd, 2008, 05:47 PM

Like for realz now I need to find the same pink paint... My husband keeps telling me to go to home depot since the match things to the SAME color as the paint...but I thought that paint was just for walls but Jordan said they have other paint also...is that true?

Nick · October 2nd, 2008, 05:48 PM

I don't know that the latex paint from HD will give the durability you want. an automotive paint place should be able to color match as well though.

snipereyz · October 2nd, 2008, 05:52 PM

hmmm... i would think the plastic is too soft to sand... and what about the paint smell?

Asian Cracker · October 2nd, 2008, 05:52 PM

^ oooh yea those... I didn't even think we had any here!

snipereyz · October 2nd, 2008, 05:52 PM
