Came out nice!
I wonder how PlastiDip would work out for something like that. I bet it would feel nice and look pretty good too.

I have a BRZ premium which has these and the ac control pieces in black where the FRS has them in silver. I would like to trade! Then you wont have to worry about paint flaking off!

Not trying to thread jack, OP it looks good. If anyone is interested PM me instead of posting here.

Mad props, this actually looks like it came this way from factory. Will have to look into doing this also!

Edit: P.S. Can I get info on the pain that you used? Will you be doing a DIY?

This looks very nice and clean! I hope it lasts!

Personally, I like the silver but you did a great job on the color match! Looks factory.

I'd also like to know the specific paint and process you used (sanding? primer?). I think it looks good, but I'm more interested in doing it to the steering wheel scion badge.

No sanding, nor primer. Just washed the trim.
