For those who refurbished the dash, did you use same color on all 3 sections? I have the metallic black and have used in on glove box area and dash end caps. Do you use metallic black on gauge cluster and center stack, or a satin black?

Those 3 panels are all painted the same. If you have the cash this is the place that restored the chrome and black finish. I would highly highly recommend them, but everything comes with a price. Given that you are staring at this whenever you are driving it was worth it to me.

Just as another point of suggestion. If you are wanting OE for the dash color it is actually more charcoal than black. I took my dash to the paint shop and they matched the color hidden behind the passenger dash trim piece.
