DIY piano black finish :D The piece was originally wood finish. Im going to let the clearcoat to cure for a week then buff it lightly.
(Tip: For best results, spray in a CLEAN, lint free room!)

Interesting... I just read a post on a European forum about someone doing similar upgrades on his B6 using Carbon-fiber like sheets by Underground Graphics : mon A4 et son évolution avec photos - Audi A4 - FORUM Audi - FORUM Auto par marques

LOL thats what i did...my trims are already wrapped, so doing a piano black finish on the radio/shifter surround trim takes a long ass time to spray, cure, spray, cure, wet sand, spray, cure, polish.

Thanks Mike, I dont know how to post the pics like that. I just figured it out now lol

Here is everything installed and cleaned up. It's the best I can do on the piano black finish. I'm quite satisfied, and I know I can do better. I just dont have the patience to redo it again.:oops:

So orginally, I had a single DIN concert radio. I swapped it out by replacing to a double DIN cage, to a double DIN symphony Radio, the centre console, the ash tray, and the climate control. I also had to replace the shifter surround trim, as the old one was much longer. Everything was plug and play.
