No one that I've seen sells painted with chrome to match gage bezel. But if you are brave enough, you could prep the flat center and paint to match. It would look cool.

Re: glovebox door

You will have to paint it if you want the chrome trim. Buy the chromed door, scuff the inner portion and use a quality etching primer and paint to match. You will actually be better off if you use duct tape and tape what you do not want blasted and then bead blast the rest of the door then paint.

Re: glovebox door

The glovebox door matches the instrument cluster best when you don;'t use a Cheyenne Super applique. The instrument cluster doesn't have the extra bead. I like the custom touch of using a chromed glovebox door and matching to the instrument panel. It looks like something GM should have done...woodgrain,black textured,or body color like a GMC.
