I saw a post you made in another thread that you had this painted to match your door and dash trim. Was the door and Dash trim Carbon Flash Metallic when you bought the car? Or did you have it painted later?

Hi, Bee, can you tell me if disconnecting the negative battery terminal did anything to the electronics of the car? Like did it reset any of the specs on the digital spedometer? if you get what i'm asking..

You just have to reset your clock is all. I am almost 100% sure everything even the radio stations stay as is.

Glad I found this... the chrome strip on the bezel makes for instances where the sun reflections get in your eye.

I wonder if the chrome piece comes off the bezel easy enough? Looks like from the pics above, its all one unit.

I could not pull the air bag -,-. I spent about 3 hours trying and did not make it. As a result, I messed up my airbag. I will have to take it to the dealer to fix it.
