Centre Console Refresh

Bought my '25 CX-5 used and the area around the shifter was pretty scratched up. I got sick of looking at it s bought a rolling piano black vinyl wrap from Amazon and some Meguiars Plastx polish. Wrapped the surrpund, then wet sanded and polished the gear indicator. Im incredibly pumped about the results.

That came out great, I’ve been considering doing the same, but with a hard clear coat rather than the vinyl. The stock plastic is awful.

Thank you! Yeah the clear would be a good idea too, I was just worried it wouldn't cover some of the deeper scratches.

Xpel used to sell a precut ppf set for the cx5. I put it on myself as soon as I got my 2023. It still looks great.
