65 Barracuda instrument panel finish

One of the first things that i did with my my newly started restoration is to remove the dash panel and start to clean it up. I saw the yellowish colored plastic and what looked like spray painted portions on the interior parts of the gauge cluster. All were pretty dirty and obviously needed some love, so I went to work meticulously cleaning and removing all of the old paint. What I have now, is a nice clean yellow plastic gauge cluster. What I really need is a good picture of a finished, cluster that I can follow. Also, any ideas about paints to use, what parts stay yellow plastic, which parts to spray and how to reproduce the shiny looking, chrome trim around the bezels. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

I pulled this off a website that had it for sale. Says it's from a '65.

Here is a pic of my KPH speedo cluster with NOS gas, temp and amp gauges. The whole bezel is first plastic chrome plated, lenses polished and insert painted a greyish/silver color.
