If this is the kit you're referring to, it is actually a two piece kit, the gauge cluster is one big piece but only the two pods on the side are painted to match.
Installation is pretty easy, the hardest part is the stupid electrical connectors on the underside of the console piece. A couple of them on the bottom of the console are in awkward locations for getting your hands in there. If you take your time, it is about a 1 - 1.5 hour job total.

I got mine from PFRC.com and installed myself. Took me longer than 1 -1.5 hr, but i was being very careful. Plus, if you use "search", there is a thread on the Forum with detailed pictures under "interior Trim".

Close ups shown to give an idea of how it matches the dash and trim.
This is the link from my thread back in May. Should tell it all. Great results for about $20.00.
Textured matte black looks like it belongs.
There are some flat or satin black sets being sold, but doubt that they are any less scratch resistant then the stock silver.
This finish is meant to be walked on, so it's durable after cured.

I have seen it called three pieces because you should count the piece where the F55 switch goes . If you have F55 you use the original black piece and not the new painted one.
