heres one of the center console...it didnt turn out as good as the other ones but you get the idea. in the right angle it looks like the door handles....theres just too much shadow to really see how good it looks.

and i know what a few of you might be thinking but its not that sparkely looking all the time.

When the painted pieces are not in direct sunlight they are a shiny gunmetal grey.

I just took the "in-sun" pics to show the color shift in the paint.
