Double din dash kit

I seen one guy on cardomain.com that painted his dash kit silver to match the silver interior trim. I can't seem to find the picture anymore. Does anyone know of anyone else who has done this? Also, I know that the dash trim is Satin Nickel, but I can't find that color any where. Does anyone know a silver that will match? Thanks.

had a boy of mine paint his with some KRYLON FUSION (DULL ALUMINUM) it looked original but then again he repainted everything.... just incase, and then threw on some clear to keep them from cracking or fading...but he did all his dash piece with 2 cans of silver and 1 clear so pretty much under 20$. i was gonna paint my pieces cuz they got light scratches...but i got a friend that works at gm he will change the 2 of them under warranty. Hope this helped you dude!

Hey guys I just got installed my Pioneer AVH P-3100. Sounds great and the video is great too. The only flaw it has is that it only has 2 pre outs. So we had to spit the rear speakers with the sub . So now, the rear speakers are very quiet because the signal is getting split. A fix to this is to get an amp with 4 channels or have two amps going. One for the sub and one to boost the signal for the 6x9s. Luckily, [I] have I have another amp laying around so I'll get that done next week.

Special thanks to EmperorJJ and Spun for helping me with the paint for the dash trim. It looks awesome.

Here are some pics.

Unfortunately no. I've only had it for 24hrs. Mine was already on the 12 hour clock. All I had to do was set the time.
