Painting air bag cover

[JST2CRZY]

Already did a search with no results. I am in the process of painting the dash and wanted to ask how many have painted the airbag cover as well?
Did you leave it in the car or remove the assembly? Mine is actually in perfect shape but probably won't be able to match it to the new dash paint.
96 gts.

Also, thinking about putting in a later model texured dash and radio bezel at some point if anyone has these for sale?

I just put the later model dash in my 96. it makes a huge difference! keep in mind that the new dash has the airbag switch which ours does not have so you'll have 2 holes that need to be plugged. I used 2 of the round switches from autozone and got a wire from the airbag to run through a switch so i can turn it off when my son rides with me. the other switch controls my high speed fan relay. While you have the dash off, if you feel like taking on another task, you can change your gauge faces. I have a couple pics in a thread by KNGSNKE about the gauges and you can see the dash.
