Here we go. Console trim done.
primer



1 coat



few coats



fitted

Looks amazing and thank you for the pictures and update. Those seats were an absolute steal for the money, they look hardly used.

You are also good at the spraying and have given good descriptions, it is very easy to put on too much paint and get runs and sags. I sprayed a Fiesta for my children many years ago, they chose Ford Mercury Grey, well what a pig to spray the metal in the paint kept on sinking in the gun and you had to keep the gun shaken whilst getting a good even pass. it looked good in the finish but took longer to do in the end and used much more paint because i sprayed so many coats. the lacquer was a doddle.

Keep up the good work, your car is looking fantastic

Well done, that looks fab
