nice everyone...
This plasticote junk works pretty good. I installed my dual guage pod the other day and it looked ok, but not great cause it was black and the pillar is gray. I know, I am trying to convert alot to black but this black thing stuck to my pillar looked really tacky. So, I used some fine grit sandpaper and sanded the pod down to a dull finish, primed the whole thing with some gray primer, painted it with about 5 coats of gray plasticote then 2 coats of clear coat to bring out the finish and add durability. Looks great now! check it:
