Default Center Console Wrap?

Has anyone ever come across any kind of wrap or cover for the center console? My ‘17 Sport has some scratches on the passenger side of the console I want to cover up.

I’ve seen stuff for almost every part of the interior and dash, such as “carbon fiber” handles, vent covers, cup holders, etc. online but can’t find a vinyl or any precut wrap for the center console.

thanks.

I bought an Issyauto f150 console cover on Amazon for my 2019. It is neoprene and waterproof. I got it to protect the cover from my two very eager 5 month old puppies and so far so good. $13+-

This is the part of the console I am referring to.

I pulled mine off and spray painted it black with exterior automotive trim paint.
I think it actually looks better.

I posted a couple of pics in this thread, if you are interested.

It still looks great...that paint is pretty strong.

that looks awesome! How hard was it to take the plastic off? Or did you have to remove the entire console?

Thanks! It is super easy to remove in about one minute, no tools required.

I'm sure there is a video on YouTube, but here is what you do:

Set your parking brake
Put the truck in neutral
Open the hinged armrest of the center console
Grab the back edges of the plastic cover you want to remove (closest part to the storage area)
Lift it to approx 30* and then pull it straight towards the rear of the truck.

It’s a snap once you’ve done it once. Put it together by doing the steps in reverse.

Here is one video. I don’t use a screwdriver, but if you watch this you’ll see the process.

I just updated the post I made when I originally painted the cover.

That is for the links and directions. I want to try this. I was thinking maybe black plasti-dip?

I used automotive trim paint. The nice thing about plasti-dip is less prep, more color choices, and it can be removed.
