Default FUBAR'D my center console...

i tried making it all shiny and whatnot but i messed the one part up (long story) so i decided instead of spending all that cash on a center console, why not just touch it up...

what do you guys think? or

yea lol, i got sick of using steel wool to scrape off the paint so i pulled out the bench grinder with the wire wheel ( i have a "i dont have patience" problem, possibly road rage also). worked great till one of the prongs that holds the shift boot in place got stuck and the grinder got a hold of it lol. lots of 600 grit sandpaper and a can of red krylon plastic paint and there i go.
