Default LCI illuminated shift knob

So its already installed but needed some fellow member advise.....

Connection was straight forward.. T harness from new shifter plugs into ports under the shift boot. Took 2 minutes.

I'm debating whether leaving the silver part alone or custom painting the silver part either gloss black or matte black...... Since there's nothing in the from dash with silver plating.

Input please??

If you're going to shoot it with some spray paint, then I suggest you leave it alone, as the paint will start to flake off after a while and you'll get a handful of particles each time you touch it.
Unless you take it to a bodyshop and have them use some really good stuff that will last longer. Just more money, unless you got the hook up.
