Looks good Preston..I hate the wood grain too and its even worse on the Ram interiors! haha I have the carbon fiber looking one and really like it actually. One of my friends is into vinyl wrapping and just carbon fiber wrapped a bunch of pieces from his dash and it looks clean as hell. Unfortunately, wrapping a bezel would be tough work and paint is better. Although, sullysdetailing is probably good at that sh*t..and I agree with the clearcoat. It is a little "sparkly" as you said but definitely looks OEM and cool

This is the 'carbon fiber looking one', it's actually a bunch of triangles. Yeah, it's mine.

Sorry to be OT but did the dash change at all for the SLT? Can my dash accept a din and what is that a half?
