Pfft! the interior panels were my first mods and I had no extra $$ spend.Undoubtedly, I'll have the interior panels re-painted soon to more closely match my shift knob and CAI. Because the covers were painted on a "hook up" basis, it took them nearly 3 weeks to get it back to me. I really don't want to be driving around for 3 weeks w/o my freakin panels and speaker grilles lol.

Looks great! I just recently painted my heat shield, intake box, fuse cover, and positive battery cover red. When I get mine back from the dealer I'm going to paint the battery tie down and a fe wof the misc. caps.
