Is painting the best way to go, or is there some kinda matching-color cover you can get to put over them? I would be interested in matching black bumpers and dash trim. right now the dash trim is silver. Crewzin said he couldnt find any place to get replacements and the best thing would be to have them painted....

SecretSpy,

Can't find the post right now but I believe what I tried to say was that nobody was selling the dash trim to match the "Pewter" color that Chrysler put in the white, black and silver PT's. I did however find a place, (that has since went out of business = Rapid Craft)that made the Pewter dash trim and I got one before they closed shop. There is a cover for the front and back bumpers that many PT owners have used. I went with the front cover and had it painted by the local shop. I believe now you can even order the covers painted but they will not guarantee a perfect match to your cruiser because sometimes even the factory colors are off a shade.
