BlockHead Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 The trim on my dashboard had been painted blue very badly so I thought rather than go through the effort of re-painting it and run the risk of messing it up again, I'd stickerbomb it.So far I've done these two sectionsbut I'm having trouble with thisIt's screwed in, but the screw head is behind the switch itself. I'm guessing there's a way of removing it as it's been painted with the rest but how does it come off? I don't wanna just go yanking everything and end up breaking it, but I need to get to that screw. Any help? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pro3mark Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 Push in the light switch, and twist clockwise.Then pull the lightswitch and the whole lot will come out.Then i believe theres another screw behind that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotty_82 Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Personally i think it looks like a ten year old boys bed room, and before Rich jumps in and for legal reasons i have never been in a ten year old boys bed room and no ten year olds have been in mine, im working on an assumption. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GtiJames Posted January 29, 2011 Report Share Posted January 29, 2011 Each to their own and all that jazz but IMO it's one of those mods that's just done for the sake of modding because it's cheap. Looks terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

si_leeds Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Use uv laquer and they don't fade from the sun.Iv been wanting to do this to my front badge for a while, I know a lot of people don't like it, but its only the same as doing other silly bits like painting your wheels orange or pink.Personally being from a bmx/graffiti background I think it looks sweet, as long as you don't go overboard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlockHead Posted January 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 I did it because I didn't want to repaint it all, it was a pretty rough finish on all the plastics and looked mroe effort than it was worth. And I prefer all the bright colours to the blue anyway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkStryder360 Posted January 30, 2011 Report Share Posted January 30, 2011 Too much White on those stickerbomb packs or is it just how you set it out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
