Hey guys, my champaigne gold vl has a creamy beige interior (you all know the one) and i wanna paint some of the interior plastics. Now my question is, is there any way i can return the plastics to their original colour when i want to sell it?? Is there a brand of paint that stocks the colour so i can respray it when i goto sell it?? or is there any way to get off about 4 layers of plastic primer, 4 layers of colour and 5-8 layers of clear?? and get it back to original??
i wanna modify it now, but change it back to stock when i goto sell it... anyone??

There should be a trim number on one of the plates in the engine bay,that will be your paint code but not all auto paints shops can use the code so leave them an interior piece for a few days to copy,painting interiors doesnt always look better.
