      Don't discount using the flexible chrome mylar trim sold in most AutoZones, Pep Boys, and Advanced Auto. Its available in various widths, its got a 3M adhesive backing, and honestly can't be told from metal unless you look SUPER close. It has a protective clear covering that should be peeled off once you apply it. Many people leave the clear on, not knowing that your looking at the trim through a no so clear film. Might be perfect for your console project but it also depends on what its adhering to. If you're thinking of applying it to a padded or soft surface, you obviously can't pull it down and tight. Surface trim only.

      I think this is what I'm looking for. I was unsure of what it's called and where to get it. It will be placed on the vinyl wrapped around the console, so a nice firm surface. If I can find the stuff I think it will tie the console in nicely to the interior without looking "too" custom
