That's cool Jason, but you should paint the knobs. I repainted my interior pieces (center pieces and the knobs, and the door pieces that you pull on to close the door (I forget what they called). I'll take some pics later if I remember to. Also, did you have any problems with the paint flaking off the center pieces? I've always had that problem, even when I first painted it.

I was able to take off 2 of the knobs one was a little more tricky i didnt want to break it so left it alone at the time. I might try again if worse comes to worse i can just get a used on ebay. No problems with paint flaking. I sanded and primer first and then left it to dry it in the hot sun for a few hours. If prepped right the paint shouldnt flake. Even if it does in a few years i can always repaint it.
