Is it even that bad? Show us a pic...

I remember countless times having a 1cm scratch that nobody would ever notice but i would stare at all day and obsess over. Even when having sex i would close my eyes and see this scratch. It basically controlled me.

Straight roads are for fast cars, twisty roads are for fast drivers. I have or am neither.

I did the same thing but it was on the trim in front of passenger seat, so I just spraied them, including that radio trim.

You would be better to Vinyl wrap that rather than the pain in the bum to prep for paint I would think.

oh jesus, please don't paint it blue like the monstrosity posted above. Personally I'd happily pay to replace scratched trim pieces if they annoyed me to the point of considering painting/wrapping.

I try to wrap the red piece at first, but the air vent is too hard to do perfectly. but it will be easier for radio trim.

I used 400 then 1200 to prep the surface, then I used SEM flexible coating, it's an all in one plastic paint.
