grey interior paint code?
I ordered the F650 dash, the same one offered by riffraff diesel, except I bought mine from the dealer(sorry riffraffdiesel.com but it was cheaper) but its not painted, and depending on how it looks not painted I may keep it unpainted. it should look the same as the guage bezel so it might be trippy.
But incase I decide to paint it. is there a paint code for the grey interior?
whats the best wat to strip the paint off my plastic pull-out cup holder if I decide to keep in un-painted?

There are actually a number of different grey's, depending on the year and who knows what else. The interior paint code should be on the Certification Label on the B pillar door jamb.
It could be Medium Flint (2002-2007), codes D or E. Or it could be Medium Graphite (1997-2004), codes T or 2.

The stock dash isn't painted, it is colored plastic. You won't be able to strip it down to the dark gray color. The center dash also doesn't correspond to your strip color so don't bother trying to paint it that as 9 out of 10 times it isn't the trim color.

Got it on the paint codes.. thanks!
damn didnt think I get busted by Riffraff on here....
my excuse is that you guys are currently on backorder... and i had to have one now LOL
I do have to say that if I had ordered it from Riffraffdiesel that it would have come painted... probably worth the 20.00$ i saved.... just for the record
and my cup holder is chipping and underneath its the same color as my bezel.. I dont wanna strip my whole dash just the cup holder

I chipped away at it on the back side theres 2 layers of paint!!!! looks like someone painted it and then instead of stipping it just repained it grey....it took about 40 minutes but bettween bending it and chipping away at it with another piece of plastic I got it all off. was hoping I could save the black paint underneath but no luck... so i think Im stuck painting either way I go...
thanks for the info though!
