good job but I say painting the inside chrome section of the them with flat black looks best. Especially on light colored EVOs.

I remeber when I had the stock MR Panel but glad I since switched the the AEM Setup. If you want a real clean look check out the 52mm or 60mm dash from Gruppe-S. Here is a pic of mine.
