Cup holders

[CMF_david (2)]

Hi,

The problem is I have a grey dash...with a grey dash mat...and now I have a brown cup holder/compartment that sits in the trough.

1. Does anybody know if it is possible to change the colour of the plastic of the cup holders by a means other that painting it?

2. Does anybody have recommendations for an apholstry place in perth for a reshaped dash mat?

3. Has anybody seen a grey cup holder that sits in the trough or do they only come in brown?

I have a brown dash with a grey cup holder / compartment.
Didn't realise they also came in brown.

Hey, maybe you could swap cupholders..hehe

If you look klosely at the back of your ashtray in your Micra you will notice that it has been spraypainted to get its grey apperance..

But the cupholders will get a fair bit more weare over time so I guess painting it just wont do.. hmm..

Hey David,
I have been looking for a dashmat for a Micra and am in Perth. I found a place that has quoted me a price of $55 which is pretty good because, as I am sure you know, you can find the bloody things anywhere! Here is the email they sent me back:

The cost of the dashmat will be $55 if you would like to place the order
please contact us on 93705088 or call into the store in Bayswater.

Here's the webpage: http://www.protectomat.com.au/main.html

i have a brand new black one. when i bought it, it looked grey. but when i got it, it was black! if anyone wants it, let me know.

I got mine done through autopro...like $40...discount if your an RAC member. That was for the standard micra dash.

I got a quote for about $110 to fit over the compartment/cupholder.

I'll be visiting Perth in a couple of months.
