Paint on OEM interior trim looks tacky, and will probably wear pretty fast. Get the OEM peices.

I know that s2ktrouble guy that wrapped his interior in the 3M carbon painted a few peices, but he actually fiberglassed all the parts then painted them so they are smooth. That looked pretty good, and the paint was done right.

Here's some previous discussion on the matter:

Summary: most don't like it, some do. If you do it, take care to not over do it

If you like it just do it. I assume you posted this because you are unsure and need motivation. Well, just think about your S2. Its not a Civic, its a engineered racing machine. You really want to spray paint interior plastic parts?

Think about it

Damn, that felt like trying to convince a 16yo teen not to get a tongue piercing

if they are painted by a professional, they will look good. I had thought about a few pieces in silver to match the tweeter rings. Do not over do it as others said. Paint a few pieces as accents
