I think I might put a dimmer switch because the brightness is perfect for the day but not at night so I can just switch the brightness at night.

Lighting looks really good in the picture though. I like the carbon on that console.

Thanks man, I couldn't get it to curve around the side of the unit either. The angles are too sharp and it will bubble up. It isnt that bad but i'm taking it off soon anyways.
