Maybe something a little more subtle would look better, and a little cleaner spray pattern. I see a lot of heavy spots.
Good eyes TBB...looking at that first and second pic there are a lot of spotty/heavy spots.
As I mentioned before I think the color is gross, but I don't mind the dash bezel painted. I debated doing it for my truck, but I don't think I will since I have the dark interior and I plan on switching my truck to Black at some point anyway. The door handle surrounds are a bit too much IMO too. I would have just painted the door control cover...

lol..don't take it the wrong way. It's just constructive criticism. As long as you like it that's all that matters...it's your truck, not ours.

No, they make vinyl paint which double as carpet paint which means painting your OEM floor mats to match... you alread know they fit, and after a half assed scrubb, the paint does the job of hiding most stains (sans oil and such). You just need the paint, a nylon bristled brush, free time. read the can you used on your dash, you said you used the 'Sem' stuff right? it has carpet instructions on it.
