Hey, I noticed that alot of you buy a black gauge pod and paint it to match the pillar. I want to paint mine, but what color do I use to match it to almost the same color as the pillar?

is yours the light grey pilar? I used some duplicolor vinyl and plastic grey color. It was a bit darker than i stock. Not very noticable though.

Best to maybe try VHT's Ford interior color plastic paint is my guess. Maybe ford uses the same plastic color as the MSP.

there was somewhere that someone showed the perfect paint match, but i can't remember where or what it was. Personally i just left mine black to get more contrast from the silver gauge rings.
