2015-16 Nismo Interior Pieces

I think we could tell

Ignore list. If there are stupid people, you can put them on the ignore list so you don't see their posts. Kenchan's is quite large. I, on the other hand, prefer to keep tabs on the idiots. Can't let them step too far out of line - like one guy that tried to say you really didn't need to change the oil in your car because he worked with some specialized industrial machines at work that could run their lifespan on the original oil

Maybe I need to test drive a new Nismo (with my wife so sale guy can't come) and just take it home and swap the parts

surrrre, just another benefit to owning a Z. No oil changes necessary and they run on pixy dust and happy thoughts.

I'll post some pictures later but I wrapped my interior pieces (all the circular parts) and I had all the others painted gloss black. I was able to order the buttons for the s mode and hazard lights and the steering wheel controls. Other than that all my silver is history.

what about powder coating them?

edliaszenik

Powder coating plastic is a bad idea given the whole melting point issue.

i have a 15 nismo and love that they blacked out all the silver in the interior. but they left the exterior door handles and the headlight shrouds silver!

kenchan

At least its not mixed in the same space. ie cockpit..

I also absolutely love the blacked out interior in my 15, but personally I think keeping the door handles & headlight bezels silver makes sense for the exterior. I mean those handles are iconic imo (plus I really dig that look on the PW)

Good luck on the conversion tho! (I can't imagine having to do all that myself lol)

Have you seen KAD exterior handles yet? You might change your mind...bad pictures of mine HERE. Now every time I see the stock silver handles they look much worse to me, to each their own maybe.

I used paint on everything except the radio console for which I used Plasti (wanted a texture there). The most important thing is to prep the pieces properly, I always use an ultra fine sand paper then rub down thoroughly with rubbing alcohol. Also once I finish the last coat of paint I apply a very light coat or 2 of clear coat (not enough to make it shiny). As for taking the pieces apart, there is DIYs on here for that and the areas you cant find DIY for you just have to figure it out. The triple gauge cluster is the trickiest and the rear strut brace requires you to remove basically every interior panel from the console back lol. If you knock it out 1 thing at a time its not bad, and as for wear/chiping no issues if prep and paint are done properly..
