I won a bid on ebay for a brand new pioneer avh x4500bt and i got a super good price on it. I didnt like missing the pocket under the radio or the trim ring on the dash kit along with the nav bezel so i decided to pull the dremel, filler, and paint out and give it a shot. If it didnt work then i would just stick with the nav bezel, but everything turned out ok. Im not a pro at painting and dont have a spray gun for my compressor so i rattle canned it. Here are a couple pics. Sorry for the sideways pic photobucket is ********. What do you think?

Thanks, I need to make some custom metal brackets to mount it and the face of the HU tilts and it opens to insert a disk so the opening needs to be a little larger. So I am going to buy a spray gun and go at it again.

Looks good to me! When I break down and get a new deck, I'll have to do the same.
I hate the look of the 'trim kits' for the Gen IVs.
