Default Painted Dash Bezels

so i decided to go ahead and paint the black dash bezel, and the piece that goes around the guages. I think it looks awesome, and would like to paint all the plastic in the interior like this.

That acually looks pretty good! I want to do mine, but have a shop do it right instead of using a spray can.

Looks good.
Thats one of the first mods I did. My dad sprayed it with automotive paint and cleared it. It reflects the lights off the gauges for a nice effect
