For those w/ Autometer Dual Gauge Cluster: Get rid of that cheap plastic look

When i got my Dual Gauge Cluster Bezel, it looked cheap as hell for something that retails for $70...

Anyways, wasn't satisfied w/ it. So i sanded it down w/ some 400 grit wet sandpaper and put 4 coats of Krylon Ultra-Flat Black paint on it. Now it looks just like the OEM bezel w/ that dimpling effect!

All people not satisfied w/ the quality of their bezels should really try this. Definately worth the $4 for paint and 20 mins of time
