Awesome DIY. Did it today and it turned out excellent

 

^Bravo!
Pics or it didn't happen!!!

 

Here you are:





Sorry the pics kinda suck

 

I think it looks 1000x times better than the stock aluminum crap they have on there

 

^That looks kick-butt on the black interior!

I'm going to do my door handels, locks, and sterring wheel trim soon. That will basically eliminate the "stock aluminum crap" as you say (I'm not a fan either)

 

nice pics!

 

That looks pretty good. I think i will give it a shot. What kind of paint did you use? Did you use the same paint thats shown at the begining of this thread?

 

^Same paint, same prep.
Actually, on the center console, the OEM finish is such crap that you can wipe it down with some 91% Isopropyl Alcohol and it will start taking the finish off
But go ahead and sand it anyway.

 

How about using the vynil paint for the grille since its a lot more durable.

 

Thank you for this DIY

 

I'm not really sure. I thought about it, but when you sand the grill, it usually doesn't remove all the "chrome" just scuff it a lot, so I'm not sure if it would stick properly.
I used a different paint on my grill because I wanted it to be the same paint as my wheels (and eventually headlights)

 

Thanks, ill give it a shot this weekend and ill post up pics when I do.

 

Ashley you need a black momo shift **** asap! lol

 

^I don't like the MOMO all that much. I mean it's fine on other people's ride, but not what I want.
I'm getting the black M45 shift **** when I can afford it.

 

I love the momo is so comfortable and is like half the overall size of the oem lol
