Default gauge trim

Does anyone know if I can replace the gauge trim on my 07 mustang with satin gauge trim, like on the 08 bullitt mustang? Where can I get it?

I have heard of people using fine sandpaper or steel wool to lightly scuff it up for the satin look. I've been thinking about trying it myself.

I did something like this to my bike. I have a M109R and was in the process of blacking out all the chrome. there are several parts that are chrome plastic and before i painted them i had to scuff them. I thought it looked really good, if you did it in a straight line it looked like brushed aluminum.. Take them off and give it a try. i bet it would look good.

Aside from doing something like mentioned above, you would need to replace the entire bezel assembly.
