Gloss Black 3M Vinyl on Interior Trim
First time working with vinyl. I like how it turned out. Took about an hour to do all 5 pieces. Next up is the silver pieces next to the radio/ac controls.
I was thinking about getting black buttons but now I like the contrast between the buttons and shifter trim. Door handles and vent rings: Shifter trim: |

I like it, it looks clean. I have been thinking of doing the same thing myself, but not sure if I want gloss black or the matte CF look.
If you plan on keeping the shift knob and leaving the paddle shifters silver (the only things making me reconsider redoing part of my interior) then the silver buttons might not be a bad look. |

I got a roll of the gloss black to do the dash pieces but royally screwed up as it was my first attempt. It was not a bad thing either because I then realized that smooth gloss will get scratched up or will perhaps fade over time. So I then got black CF and did the two dash pieces and the two knee garnish pieces to perfection. The CF vinyl has a slightly raised pattern and should resist or hide scratches. I should have done it a long time ago; I just can't stand the fake painted silver pieces.
