DIY Change Your Interior Light Grey Panels to Black - Toyota Yaris Forums

Just wanted to thank KCALB SIRAY for the awesome DIY!

I needed to color my vent pieces black to match my RS interior pieces I was installing and didn't feel like going the rattlecan route.

(Sorry for the crappy picture, the sun was in an annoying spot)

It looks perfect to me, the picture makes the vents look lighter than what they are, but they are a nice flat black.

One thing I noticed is that the bottom vent angling "wheels" do not dye very well. They're not as light as they look in the picture, but they're not nearly as dark as the vents and this is after leaving them in the dye twice for about a half hour.
