On the cheap to bring life back to your A Body console top Bright work.

I bought a good auto chrome wrap off of ebay to do this. Better than spending a $1,000 for new console tops or sending out to rechrome them. My car is a decent driver quality.......Not concurs. you can also use a hairdryer to stretch the wrap around corners. The wrap is very cheap on Ebay. Look for a quality wrap. usually it's good for up to 5 years.

The ugly duckling before I painted the console with 1965 Mopar medium blue vinyl paint from Year One. Also here is the dash frame and dash pad cover I painted. I used base coat clearcoat on the dash frame and 1965 Mopar medium blue on the dash cap and sunvisors. The sunvisors were a burgundy metallic before I painted them. My car is auto on the column. I needed a drink holder, so I removed the shifter area from the console and made a drink holder in it's place. I'm pleased.

After I have the console installed, I'll take a final picture and post it here.

Just a final note: Depending on the light....The blue colors all match...The console looks lighter than the visors and dash pad cap..............but they really are the darker blue like on the visors as shown.

That does look Nice. Do you happen to have a link for the wrap you used.
