....Since you have used this Paint and seen it close up and personal , do you agree that it is EXTREMELY close to the OEM Cognac color.........The only thing I did different was to keep the area directly around the instrument cluster FLAT BLACK, to prevent any glare possibilities..........I found this paint awhile back and used it on my RSS ( after buffing the shine out ).....I then convinced DEE that with a few coats of CLEAR in would deepin the shine effect............I think it really makes the Dash surround POP..................Nice job.........Mike

I thought about leaving the part closest to the gauges black as well, after the first couple coats.
I like the look I have though and if glare becomes a problem it will be an easy enough fix.[/QUOTE....................... Only $ 8.50 here, but if you actually used BRP paint it would have been $ 50 + at least..............glad you liked it ,,,,,,Mike
$8.50 USD, that's just short of $100 CAN!

I'd also like to give a shoutout and to Finless Bob for his video on replacing the Spyder Speakers, probably saved me a week!
And this little stance wheels gem is a pic of just how far you have to go to replace the saddlebag cargo module, I don't recommend this!!! (rear speaker not part of this tear down) tsw wheels
NICE WORK!!
