For something a little nicer for final appearance, take a look at this guys page, he's pretty good with stuff like this, the texture coat and then paint route that he does would probably turn out a lot better once you are done.

Re: Not done but tell me what you think!
you learn well grasshopper. make sure you sand off all the texture off the abs before you repaint it

Don't like it. Not because I don't like your work, I've just never liked the look of double din units crammed into the space where a din and a half was originally. IMO the only way to make it look right is to relocate the heater controls to have a more consistent border around the radio.

Re: Not done but tell me what you think!
looking good so far. i know this takes some work to get done right, keep at it. I'm planning on doing something similar with my 4th gen dash, so i grabbed an extra bezel to experiment on (or destroy miserably, whichever happens first)

Re: Not done but tell me what you think!
im actually thinking of doing the same thing but building the enclosure about the a/c controls since it still works in that kinda awkward open area under the air vents next to the cluster. but very nice bro.
