Question Siver interior pieces

Does any have any pics of the TA gauge bezel painted. The one that wraps around all the gauges inside the cluster. Also I was thinking about painting the ring around the vents on the dash. That little piece thatts in between the dash and vents. Just trying to describe this as best I can. I think it would be a subtle upgrade. I had two 3rd gens before this, Both had black interiors and I liked the little differences in the material and color.

i don't have a T/A, but I did the plastic around the gauges,plastic around the vents, around the stereo and a/c stuff, and also the area around the shifter, it looks awesome, and done right, won't come off or chip...it took me a full day to do it all, i sanded it with 600 grit, then with 800, 4 coats of primer, 7 of aluminum silver, and 4 clear coats, just remember to keep the coats light to prevent any running, if my USB port was wrking, i would send you some pics..u won't be dissapointed, all my FBOD buds want to do theirs now

Maybe checkin out RKSport.com will give you some pics to @ least get an overall idea on what you're gettin into. I think they sell gauge overlays and all, but im not sure on exactly what they got.
