Painting my interior
 
ive already painted my climate control console, side vents, and door handles are already painted red. the interior is black. what i need is opinions on whethere i should paint the gauge bezel of whether or not it would be too much.

Here is a DIY for smoking sedan lights. The same method, aside from removal, works on coupe lights too. Lots of people use VHT niteshade too.

I didn't paint around the console or airvents. Thats carbon fiber buddy.

For the black I used Krylon fusion, and for the red I just used the only red I could find that came close to matching the CF. Make sure that you use a plastic primer if it isn't a plastic paint, also clean each peice VERY well. Then I topped it with a light clearcoat for protection and shine.
