    I have an inherited scratch on the metallic silver finish on the center console that I would love to fix.

    Does anyone have any recommendations on how to get this looking like new?

    The only thing I can think of is to take it out and completely repaint the whole thing, but then I would want to make sure I get the right paint to match the other pieces.

    Thanks for any help!

    I had a similar issue on my F12. Same metallic material and same color as you have there. I had them repaint the pieces but they did not match the rest of the car. It was a small piece so I just let it go. I would worry that a repaint my not match. I wonder if you can't just buy a replacement part as crazy as that seems.

    The replacement parts that I can find that aren't through a dealership are all carbon fiber, but the rest of the interior isn't CF, and honestly I don't love the look of the full CF, so not really wanting to go that route.

    Did you have an auto shop repaint, or some other kind of shop?
