Horn button Project

I wanted a cheap Saturday project so I bought some paint and went after my washed out horn button. I only took some before and after photos since I didn't want to turn this into a step by step resto guide. I'm pretty happy with how it came out. It'll be a lot nicer to look at when I'm driving from now on. I tend to go with flat black and a satin clear coat to make it look more like unpainted plastic. It was hard to get a good after picture since it's shinier than it was when I started, but the difference should be obvious. I'll go after the cracks in the wheel some other time, but for now I'm running with the old school wheel cover to hide them. I like those things and it looks right at home on this truck!
