Bezel Rings color change

Anybody ever change the color of their interior bezel rings - not to chrome - but to something else? Is there somewhere to buy colored bezel rings (other than flat silver)?

if you could remove them you could always get them painted or paint them yourself.

How easy are they to remove. I was thinking about painting all of them Horizon Blue.

If you decide to paint them make sure that they are the silver ones and not the chrome ones. The paint won't stick to the chrome that well.

Well the rings themselves from the interior are difficult. But to pull the parts off that they are attached to are fairly easy. So with enough tape and patients you will be able to do it.
