      Redone center console, 2008 sedan

      Mine was all worn and looked like crap, so I went down to pepboys and bought a can of the OEM paint color and painted it, it looks great now, I also put a clear plastic vinyl over the front of the piece so that it it wouldn't scratch because i use that area alot.

      Materials:
      1 Can of paint, color of your choice
      2 sanding blocks
      Somewhere to paint
      2 hours of your time

      a good primer and clear coat would help with the scratching issue.

      nice work.

      I didn't want to buy clear coat, it was just a quick little budget fix, and I like the way the OEM medium gray looks when its flat. thanks though
