You will be all pleased to know, for all those that have been following this thread, I succesfully finished my interior yesterday...took a total of about 8hrs 4 cans of matt black and 1 can of clear lacquer.

I sprayed everything (except the middle pillars couldn't work out how to get it off and through the seat belt) the visors came up brilliant the light looks snug as its all black. The grab handles i laqcuerd because it woudl probably scratch the most. all the other pillars i primed and painted and was carefull when i put back in as not to spoil the job...

a word of advise....with the headliner, make sure you put as much paint on it as your arm can humanly tolerate. in the end the colour consistency should look something like the rear parcel shelf. if it does it will deffo look the mutts!!

Good luck :) (pics soon...+ my ice white interior light ;) )

I edited the post, i didnt mean the c pillars ( at the rear) i meant the ones with the seat belt going through...i got it off but i realised i would have had to take off the seat belt thingy so i left it....

Btw.....to get rid of that smudge of over spray, get some 400 grit wet and dry then give it a re-coat! ;) will get my pics up....

but you have been warned it looks sooo good you might no believe that i did it myself :whistle::funk::redface::drool:
