Go to walmart, get this(from the automotive section)...
http://duplicolor.com/products/vinyl.html
my shit was extremely purple, and looked horrible. the paint made the sunroof liner a VERY little "gloppy", but it definately is better than the faded look. i was kinda in a rush too, so i used heavy coats. thin coats would prolly make it turn out very good.
it used to loo atleast this bad...

Do you know if that will work on the dash? Some odd reason, mine is a very lighter shade then the door pieces. There is mention on HyundaiWebtech (somewhere) of a 'wax' type thing [been a while since i saw it].. that will return your crash pad to black.
But, if nobody can help here, it is back to plan (A).. total removal of interior.. and viynl dye all pieces a medium grey, and replace headliner with tweed and aluminum.

well, it is vinyl/fabric paint, i dont know if i would paint the crash pad with it though. maybe try krylon if you are looking for a spray on paint.
