I wouldn't paint them red. If anything black.

Right guys, got a little update of a few things I've done over the past couple of months.
I painted the mirror caps:
Painted the windscreen wiper cover:
I then painted a few bits inside, I also did the door handle surrounds but I don't have a picture as of yet:
After seeing another thread on here of the guy who loves LED's, I decided to do my interior light, so here's before:
And after:
I've also put on a shark fin aerial as my old one hit the spoiler:
And finally, this isn't an update, I just wanted to show off how shiny my roof is after a good polish today  not bad for an 10 year old car!
I've also got footwell neons in, but I need to wait for it to get dark to take a picture.

I'd scrape the paint off the needles and have them white instead of red. Looks good though.

scrape the red paint off the tops of them, then use some white nail varnish and go over them. Otherwise they will just be clear and could be hard to see in the day.

that's looking awesome. was tempted by the lockwood dials but wasn't sure how good the blue would be. They black or white dials?
Just got my Angel lights the other day and going to try and fit those the weekend. Have noticed there's no how to so looking at doing that.
Were your clocks LED's soldered in or bulbs?
Looking really cool mate

Cheers man. They're white ones, to make the blue any good you need to get brighter bulbs to illuminate them. Angels are pretty easy to fit really, I'm taking mine out soon though. The LED's were bulbs.

I'm bored of them really, the halos aren't that good either. I'm putting crystals in now with HIDs.
