I have to agree I don't like the cup holders, if I were you I would of done the doors, center bezel and OHC if you have one.

I have a center console but I can't paint that. I am going to paint the part (not sure of the correct name) around the CD player, outlet and air controls when i get a chance

It's called an Over Head Console, there from Explorers. Here is a picture of Mykhaels (STL).

I haven't put one in yet but I am thinking about it soon, since lots of people have done it it seems really easy the only hard part I'd think is you have to cut a hole in your head liner so that is kinda sketchy but since so many people have done them they cant be hard.

Also remember you need part of the wiring harness and temp sensor, some people think you just need the console it's self and the bracket but you need those to make it work to.

Not a big fan of the cup holders. But the doors look good.

As far as installing an OHC, the hardest thing is cutting the headliner. Start out small and then work your way out bigger. Wiring is cake.

The paint isn't exactly the same as the body but its fairly close. Close enough it's hard to tell. Thanks for the input guys

Should have used Duplicolor Metalcast. Not really a fan of the gloss red or the cupholder.
