That looks amazing! Although, IMO, you should also do the sleeves for the hazard button and odom dimmer, not to mention the boost gauge. But that looks so much better than the cheap plastic look mini was going for!

Nice work dude. Most people never apply enough color when spraying yellow, then realize after all the work is done that theres a spot you can see thru. My employer would love this as yellow is his color, hell, the building is yellow.

Anyway, are you going to move on to the door panels next? I'm also surprised that with all the development that MINI put into interiors, that no one came up with this idea before as an option???

You maaybe onto something here!

lol i was OCD about this mod...i would actually look at the rings under the light....looking for weak spots in the paint...there is about 2 cans of yellow paint on those rings alone...im working on the speaker grilles...going black on the grills and yellow rings... the downtubes and the arm rests are going to get redline covers...black/yellow stitch

Looks awesome. I think the paint makes the gauge faces stand out more.

Anyone know how to remove the Speedo and Tach Trim pieces? Is it clipped/glued in there or does it pop off like the ones on the AC vents?

speedo piece is glued/clipped on...you have to remove the center trim piece to get it off...the speedo you have to disassemble and its held in by a clip at the bottom
