Hey guys, everytime i get in the car i vomit a little bit in my mouth. I have a black dash, but that huge circle bit is grey. I was thinking of dying it black to kind of blend into the dash, so its not as noticable as much. Its not the grey thats the problem, but the oval bit just isnt to my liking.
This bit.  p.s. this is not my dash, i just stole the pic and put an arrow on it. Anyone done it, and know if dye would work ok ? Ive dyed older dashes before, but never later model cars.

The middle part is plastic isn't it? Remove it and paint it matt black imo. What kind of AU is that?

I would say it is a Futura, or a Forte Classic.

In my old AU that section was covered with that carbon fibre looking paint. It looked pretty good.
