Painted Seatbacks

Has anyone had any success painting their seatbacks? If so, what is involved in disassembly?

Thanks in advance...

I have yellow and my motorsports guy at the dealer said not a big deal to paint or repaint. He did my center console yellow to match the seat backs for $150 and looks factory. Then go get the seat belts to match!!!

I've my sport seat back painted. Not a big job, take my installer 1 hour each seat. I will suggest find someone with experiance. I saw some really bad job when installer don't know how to put them back! This is a must have option for light color Porsche.

Painting seat backs of GT3 seats

Has anyone painted the backs of their GT3 seats?

I was going to have the plastic openings on the elephant ears colr matched, but did not know how involved it would be to paint the backs as well.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Sandy
