Easiest way is to wrap them

Thanks, I had been wondering about that - or maybe plasti-dip.

I only just heard about this "wrap" material on this forum and was wondering if it would flex enough to cover the shiny round radio unit.

From your experience, would wrap material work on that and those narrow chrome rings around the gauges?

On my '04, the black rain gutters were dried out & cracking and plasti-dip sprayed on did a great job, but I'd rather not be spraying it inside the car
