Help Is This A Painted Console?

I'VE BEEN EYE-ING this center console for a while. I was wondering is that just simply painted or is that something else. How would i make/buy a console like that. Looks hella nice. Thanks for the help...anyone made it or know anyone who made it before please post pixs and let me know how its done...

Yeh its painted. Looks damn good too. Bring it to a trusted body shop, they should be able to do it for you. But don't just bring the console, bring the car. Have them do it and put everything back together. Looks like it might scratch easy.

Pretty sure that's drsifu1 lambo yellow G. A shop accustomed to prepping and painting plastics should be able to do it.

any good body shop should be able to do that.
I know shops here would ask about 150-200 for that.

The interior is def. painted black and yellow. Yellow to match the lambo yellow of the car. Also, the car has 03-04 interior but the lower part the boot and the center console is from a newer 05-07 g35coupe. You can tell by the 03-04 had a lack of a elbow rest, which the 05-07 has. And the placement of the heated seat button are different between the years. It also looks like the silver trim around the boot is from the new years. But def nice...

i have done it to previous cars, i bought a center console painted it black just like that and sold it. but the only bad part about having it as a daily driver is that depending on where the sun is, the reflection off of the clear coat is incredibly blinding.
