Radio Bezel Fix
I know that the best way to fix this piece of junk is just to replace it with a new one or go through the trouble of sanding and painting. Is there any other alternatives to get scratches of or touch it up so it looks new again? Thanks.

IMHO, that's the finest 'solution' I've seen yet. Elegant yet subtle -- perfect!

Thank's all!
Caravaggio did all the work on my car, as well as all the leather work in the interior. Off hand can't remember what $$$ the radio bezel is, but will post tomorrow.
EDIT: $595 US, as the PDF below indicates!
Quality is top notch!
Here's a shot of the console, seats, and custom wheel.

That is an awesome job
Just wish I had the $$$$$$
I digress. I've not come up witha good way to clear scratches either. Painting doesn't do it for me.

There's their interior price list. Way expensive, but I'm sure it's worth it.
I know it's very pimptastic and 80's, but I'm totally digging the sueded leather in some of the pics.
