The silver paint on my Roadster's shift buttons, especially the 'D' and 'R' which tend to get pushed the most often, started to wear off and it started giving my center console and old, tired look. Over the weekend I took a whole afternoon to repaint them and then cover them with clear contact paper so that it doesn't happen again. If you are lucky enough to have not had this happen yet, I'd definately recommend getting some contact paper on the top of these buttons as it's just a matter of time before that paint starts wearing off. Mine look great again after re-touching them, but it took a lot of time an effort that I'd rather have not invested in that.
