Shifter surround restoration

What have you guys done to the center console shifter surround? Mine is beat up, peeling, and looks horrible.
I have seen some nice gloss black surrounds, how did they do this?

Most of this info is located in the "interior/exterior" section of the forum. Just do a search there. I have seen people take their interior pieces out and have them painted at a body shop, and the panels won't peel again. I, however, am going to buy them from Ray at Malloy.

Here is one of the threads about this...

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say......Sand it down and paint it! Sorry for the smart-*** comment bro but, this should be obvious.
You know, one other thing (this is time consuming). If you peel off the coating, it is glossy underneath
