Just out of curiosity what did it look like before? Dont even tell me the ***** were completely yellow?
I will be honest im not really a fan of painting random interior parts colors. I think the absolute best thing you can do to a 05 cashmere interior C6 is install a 08+ center console and 06+ chrome ringed climate/radio ***** and nothing more. Anything more just looks tacky.

Did painting your **** black make it bigger?

Seriously though, I didn't comment in your last thread but I must admit it does look much better and more together now. way to take constructive criticism.

I totally agree, and I can take constructive criticism. It's the guys that feel the need to be total AHOLES in giving their opinion I can't stand.
