Restore has begun on the centre cf trim! thanks to @gb-lude
Had quite a few scratches here and there and buying used i was aware it won't be clean. So restoration process has begun
Before:

During: Wet sanding (600,1000,2000,2500) Going to shoot some glossy clearcoat on it and then use a polish to clean it up.

Should be done tomorrow evening. Won't have time tonight to finish it but we shall see

Couldn't wait until the weekend so sprayed it last night
Put on 3 coats of clear and letting it dry over the weekend. Then going to polish it up a bit and throw it on sometime next week.


Also got some new reverse light bulbs to help at night with the camera haha super bright now!

If you're in reverse and there is someone coming up behind you, you have bigger problems than how bright the lights are!

Finally got around to installing the cf shifter trim that i got shipped from @gb-lude Also CF wrapped the coin tray.

When i had installed the Camera i couldn't centre it because of the plate light.....so mocked up a bracket and secured it using the existing license plate screw holes, and used leds for lights and mounted the camera in the centre
