When I paint my truck I plan on changing the color (not sure what yet) so my question is this. Can I paint this trim, will it hold paint? Or should I just try to find some that is more of a neutral color?

Thanks

A couple years ago I changed mine. We had some red at my work, so I just used that.

Not sure about where you live but in Denver when I redid my interior I went to a shop call B&D Company that sold all kinds of interior stuff. I thought I was going to have to paint mine but they had the edging in all different kinds of colors.
went from brown to blue

Great, if you have the contact info. I will probably try to repaint first however. ctmandu's look nice with the re-paint.
Thanks

I think a lot of people have used the Auto Zone Dupli-Color vinyl and interior paint. I bought some of that to try on my interior parts when I get to that phase.
