How hard to paint dash without taking out interior?
Or the doors off.
I had the car painted Indigo Blue Metallic, but due to problems with the painter, it needs repainted. So I'm going to repaint it black for future color change options.
I also painted the engine bay the same thinking that would be cool, but they missed the core support and brake fluid messed up the paint on the firewall.
It's not a huge deal for me to pull the motor and dissasemble the front clip to paint it black, but I'm worried about when I should have the dash done.
Thanks.

I'd take things apart and do it right... but I'm the guy who's done a whole frame-off because of a dropped intake valve.

I'm going to do it right, but I want to get the car on the road fairly quickly. So I may end up taking it apart again.
