I've never had anything painted at a body shop (well nothing that wasn't covered by insurance). I wonder which would be cheaper. Getting them painted or buying new.

Rear Center Console $379
Painted Non-Smoker Package $149
Front Center Console $279

And I didn't see a painted door trim option for 986 or painted mirror triangles. A lot of that cost I'm sure is just the base price of the trim pieces themselves. It sure seems like it would be cheaper to have someone paint the trim you already have.
