yrralis, Did you have the seat backs painted as well or is that from factory?

+1. Do most of you guys have these parts painted aftermarktet or were they painted from factory?

I'm considering painting some of the interior bits, how easy are they to remove? I guess the rear center console is the hardest part?

Mine were painted at the factory. However, there are several sources for painted trim after delivery (See Bumperplugs for example).

Removal and replacement varies with the part. For the center console, a good writeup is located here:

Midnight blue center console courtesy of bumperplugs. I'm going to have the tip shift gate surround painted midnight blue as well.

Those car seats look like they fit perfectly without the seat backs, as if by design.

I had the seats painted along with the console . Each seat had to be removed and the backs were taken off and sent to a body shop .

Thanks for the link.

Anyone painted the steering wheel column casing? The plastic looks cheap, I'd like to have it painted piano black, or carbon fibre replacement (if they are available).
