If I had another choice, I would not recommend this product

Unfortunately, if I had another choice, I would not recommend this product. It's not a finished gloss, it's a slick black primer. I made the mistake of trying to use standard spray paint, which is perfectly tolerable. You need to cover it with epoxy spray paint, which you can order for $20-$30 a can. The hole is too tight, it took me 45 minutes with a file to remove 1/4 inch of material for the radio to fit. The side mounts are very flimsy, luckily you can use the factory metal mounts. There are 5 friction fittings that attack this item up to the dashboard. It only comes with 3, again I assembled the parts from the factory. Despite all those brief orgasms, it really works. I would happily pay more to have it fit properly without modification and have a nice long lasting finish.
