Here's some..............

Silver metalic with clear over it. The window switch matches the console, in the pic it looks different.

I have since added the MGW cup holder bezel in chrome.

I put carpet around the lower console to give it a more finished look. It's the thin stuff available from AutoZone. It's for the trunk but it looks/works good here as well.

RE: interior

I take it those are the SATIN window switch bezels? I really should have gone with those, as the polished ones show off finger prints too easy for my liking.
I'm not sure about painting an interior, maybe see if you can get the red interior seat covers.

The window switch cover is painted, not a cover. I have the red seat covers, just prefer 2 tone.

Here's a pic of the satin stick-on's still on the door handle. You can that's the paint is a close match. After painting I wet sanded with 1000 grit paper and them used a paint cleaner and then waxed. The sand paper just knock off the shine to give it more of a satin finish
