It's VERY disappointing how easily that coating scratches. I had a Ford Escort with better quality finishes.

I stripped my console and other plastic parts on my 986 a couple months ago. The plastic underneath was not a uniform color, so I had to use a concoction of black dye and acetone. Turned out very nice!
