    @Beer Man how is the fit on the AJT steering wheel side covers? Is it matte or gloss?

    They fit perfect. I just installed them on mine. They are more a satin finish than flat. Perfect match to the interior.

    Thank you. Someone posted another overlay that left gaps showing the silver around the edges.

    I agree with @PonyMan. Think of it as a replacement part, rather than a “cover”, so the fit is spot on

    Yea those are the tape on covers. These are replacement pieces, you remove the factory silver ones and install these in their places. And no it’s not hard to install at all.

    The steering wheel overlay came in yesterday and the AJT shift gate came in today. Now the steering while and shifter/cup holder area is done. 3121F6B2-E0B8-4E4E-BC13-4373D1C013ED.jpg AC123C22-85A3-4D36-8D60-B8C2855C39CE.jpg

    I don't think so, yours just looks more matte based on the angle. Mine looks the same but has more of a sheen to it in person.

    I found a work truck that the interior door is all Black. Can’t just order the chrome/silver piece in black so you would have to paint it or order a whole interior door panel.80559A6E-0354-4CE6-A47D-EC843A701EFC.jpg

    seeing how much that would be. I am positive that just painting it is cheaper.???:)

    The black items should've come like this. So much better looking. Now just need to change out the platinum badges on the center console and seats.

    Hey Beer Man, how well do those red ebay overlays for the door fit? I was looking at painting them matte black as well but I couldn’t find any reviews on them

    They’re good, but they could stick better. Maybe try and rough it up before sticking the tape to it. One of my corners was coming up so I just hit it with a drop of krazy glue. I also thought about velcro but I didn’t ever try it cuz the glue worked

    Are those vents included or are those from the silver surround? I just ordered one from Sparks! :muscleflexing:

    vents came with it but I added AJT stuff over them. If for whatever issues come up with the AJT then I’ll just buy two more oem vents

    Just replaced 2 of my ac vents with oem that I bought from a member. The other 2 are on order from the nice discount and free shipping from the southeastern dealer sale going on.

    vinyl wrap i did on the panels kept peeling on the edge, just took apart the doors and removed the panels to paint. Napa brand trim black with 2k matte clear over it. found out that you can just knock off the factory plastic welds with a sharp chisel and hammer. no need for a dremmel. interior blackout is complete now lolIMG_0764.jpgIMG_0766.jpgIMG_0771.jpg

    Kind of what I figured - was hoping someone may have already tried it though! Like my AJT rings, and don't want to paint them...

    Most of the overlays don't have 100% coverage. You will see silver at the edges. I used SEM Trim black on mine.

    The SEM is a different product than standard paint. You would be impressed if you were able to see it in person.

    Yea it's pretty great quality. I have seen it done, but I just don't have it in me to tear down the dash and do it myself. Am considering vinyl wrapping it myself though... might just let it fly until I can't bear it anymore haha

    Timely bump of an old thread. Meso stuff came in a couple of weeks ago. Easily got the cup holder surround in, but figured there was something up with the shift surround as it wasn’t detaching easily. If anyone has pictures of the install process, would appreciate taking a gander at them.

    These blacked out interiors look awesome. I ordered AJT for the climate knobs, vents, steering wheel emblem and center console trims. I vinyl wrapped some of the interior pieces but need to complete the rest. Thanks for sharing the links to the door handles!

    Sorry for the bad picture. It’s too dark out and i couldnt find my old images of it. The 2nd pic is an example of what mine looks like. I vinyl wrapped around the vents, and steering wheel pillars. I also wrapped my steering wheel. I hated the feeling of the stock wheel.
