There are alot of different ways to finish it. Upholstery work if funny that way. I will wrap the console in 1/4" foam pad then wrap with faux leather (see sample below). I will also add carpet to the sides to tie in with the floor. I thought that if I glassed the console and painted it it would be too much shiny paint. I also have a couple ideas of detail finishes to tie it all in. I pretty much have eveything I need to start covering.
