Well I finally got the trim pieces done, wow what a difference. I like the look much better than the stick on 3m pieces, I clear coated everything so hopefully it stays looking good. Boy, there is a lot of stuff to take off that center control piece.

hey, what color and brands of paint did you use to do that with? I'd like to do the same, mainly because I don't want to spend all that money on a piece of stickon plastic!

why did you tint the picture to be blue? I can't really see the detail of the pic thanks to that.

It's 7 below zero today in NH and my digital camera doesn't seem to like the cold, hence the blueish tint. You get the idea anyways.
I used plastikot primer, paint, and clear on them. I beleive the paint # was 8140, brushed aluminum. I sprayed 3 coats of primer, wet sanded with 600 grit wet sand paper, then three coats of paint, and two coats of clear. It's not that hard, just keep area clean while painting, and use THIN coats, allow at least 10 min. between coats, and 45min before wet sanding.
