Q:
Anyone have a picture of one? I'm debating to do mine.
A:
I have all the supplies to do mine in Bordeaux. So if you set up a paint booth in your garage I'll bring mine over for a two-fer.

Here you go...
pretty simple project if you follow Stan's instructions

Wut kind of paint did you use? Do you have any other pictures? From that pic, it looks like the console doesn't exactly match the rest of the car. It isn't as bright as magentic blue should be.

Too much sunlight in first pic - here's another....
Color is not an exact match and also appears somewhat darker because of the surface texture. I didn't have the patience for a lot of sanding as others have done in order to acheive a perfectly glossy finish. I also didn't want the maintenance hassle. Got my basecoat paint, adhesion promoter amd clearcoat here: http://www.automotivetouchup.com/. I believe the ICI paint code for magnetic blue is B100.
Someday when I'm feeling ambitious, I'll probably wet sand and repaint with product from Tower Paint.
I was posting just to give you some sense of the effect next to a black interior. (I'm also quite proud of my matching cupholder )
