Did you paint your dash or did a pro do it? It looks nice!

NY 350Z,
There aren't 2 holes in the trunk on the roadsters.

Reggi914,
I had a pro do it. I don't know if you can tell if it matches from the pics, but they supposedly did some laser color matching to the rings around the guages and air condidtioner controls and then glossed over it.

ronald_m,

it was about $450 I think including the armrests. A bit much if you ask me, but my spare time to mess with this stuff was limited

I would have done it myself, but I have limited time too...and no way to laser match the color.
