Been slowly modifying my interior with red accents (steering wheel, gauge cluster dash cover, and middle door cards). If you’re on the fence and don’t mind taking interior trim and parts off to paint, I encourage you to take the plunge!
Purchased BMW Dakota Grey to touch up rear center storage compartment trim. Trim had started to peel and my kids picked at it and made it worse. Used Citristrip to remove remaining paint, then GooGon to remove most remaining residue (this is probably where I should have used Seymour prewash, but Goo Gone worked well). Then sanded thoroughly from 120 grit up to 300 grit, washed again with Dawn and then Seymour Prewash. Finally, was ready for paint. Lightly wet sanded with 1000 grit between coats to improve adhesion and smooth out imperfections (it started to sprinkle while I was painting). Was a lot of work, but the final product looks great and matches well (picture includes stock rear child seat cover for comparison). Plenty of paint left if I decide to touch up other interior elements where paint gradually rubbed off (eg where front seatbelt receiver touches center panel).
Just a few words of praise for this product. ColorBond probably gets a lot of these. I recently received my order for some LVP OE Paint (CB01560000) to match GM Shale in my mom’s 2008 Buick Lucerne CXL. At first glance, the can’s cap was a close but inexact match for the interior. But, as with many spray paints, the paint itself does match. I sprayed some on a test swatch and when held against the interior door panel in direct sunlight the color match is so perfect it looks like an optical illusion because the edge of the swatch literally disappears in front of the door! Considering the original material is about 16 years old I never expected such an exacting match. Great job, ColorBond! Thanks again.

Exact match even on a 16 year old interior

Finally found a match

I bought the product because I wasted so much money at local auto stores, I got it right the first time with my purchase.
