I know that most dashes came painted parchment and some came in the matching body color. Has anyone painted their dash white (Wimbledon or other shade)? If so, would you mind posting a pic and description of color? Thanks!!

Here's a white one that I found on this site when I was trying to make up my mind to go black or white. I haven't done mine yet but like this. It's about as white as you can get.........

Thanks everyone for posting. My paint scheme ideas are not set in stone yet. I am doing a two color scheme and one of the colors will be some version of white, I just haven't decided yet. The dash will be painted to match so I wasn't sure how a bright white would look. Turns out they look great!

I didn't realize how "unwhite" Wimbledon white was until I saw it side by side to white.

So if the dash is Wimbledon White, what shade of white are the door panels? Planning on recovering the front bench seat and I see the cover comes in either Parchment or Bright White. Would like everything to somewhat match.

The correct color for the white on the dash and the door panels is parchment and not Wimbledon white.

No pictures, but rattle can bright white. A little too bright and annoying. They knew what they were doing when they toned down the factory white.

GM Summit White. Rattle canned. Painting the entire truck Summit White. Had a Z71 Tahoe in that color and it was the most pure, bright white. :cool:

Ignore the kick panels and other 'To-Do's' :p

Did anyone find a good rattle can to match up the light parchment satin for the interior dash color? I'm getting ready to restore the metal instrument panel dash and need a good paint for it, thanks.
