Auto meter dual gauge bezel?

[lx_90_coupe]

I purchased an auto meter dual gauge pod that goes around the factory cluster and I was wondering if anyone has ever tried painting it to match the dash from where its charcoal and the bezel comes in black. If you have had success at doing this I would appreciate it if you could tell me the process that you used to accomplish this and if you have any finished product pics that would be great, any and all info is appreciated as well.

Thanks,

Bob

not the best pic but it should help you out a bit. I need to trim the hole for the headlight knob a bit or figure out why mine hits there.

I noticed mine does the same thing with the headlight knob as well.

Do you happen to have the paint code that you used or did you just use charcoal interior paint?

I swapped a black one out for the painted. I didn't notice how much it stood out until I swapped them out. Not saying it stands out alot but definitely blends better.

sorry to dig up an old thread. is there any prep work involved with this? i painted mine with the sem paint and it came out like crap. going to do it over but wondering if i need to do any thing before painting.
