ok, I am going to be painting/reupholestring the entire cabin and i was wondering what everyones opinion on color should be.

I am thinking the grey/blue that is similar to the color on the seat with the silver accents will be nice..

comments?

That looks good to me. A neutral grey/blue will be different enough to be eyecatching, but not gaudy. I appreciate the work that people put into dayglow yellow and electric blue interiours, but I can't stad to look at them. The color of your seats is nice, and it would tie in with the silver accents fairly well on your dash.

yeah, plus this afternoon i am molding my LCD into the dash, so it will look 100x better

Looks good. Where will the blue be coming from. It looks like the interior is gray & black. If u keep that theme I would suggest keeping it gray & black.

[sed]

the seat is more blue than gray...

the blue will be the blueish/gray that the seat is, all the parts that aren't silver right now

besides the seat what other blue do u have in the car? I just see black & silver.

I know that the seat is blue but what other parts do u have that will match the seat?

So basically you have blue, gray, & black...right?

[sed]

the other seat ;)

and the dash and door panels when i am done..

everything that is black will be a light gray/blue and the accents will be silver

all cloth will be replaced with light gray/blue viynl or plether

shawn :)

oh and everything that is gray (crash pad and lower console) will be painted/dyed either black or lighter gray

[Jlivan]

Oh, I get it now. I was thinking that only the seats were going to be blue & gray and everything else was going to be black & gray. OK, cool!:)

[sed]

well, i picked up the paint, plastic filler, primer, bondo, hardener and clear coat yesterday....

there is a thread here showing some of the progress i made so far..

THANKS FOR THE HELP PEOPLE :)

ok anyone online and reading this now, i am leaving in like 30 - 45 minutes to pick up the paint for my dash... I NEED HELP!!!!!

what color do i get? Should i repaint the interior accents another color and go with a completly different color scheme? I can't decide, the blue looked like *** in the car so it needs to be something darker, HELP ME

Dark Gray Metal Flake is my vote. I used that on the exerior 'lip' pieces of my car and I love that paint. My paint came from pepboys in the section where they keep the paints that are made to match OEM colors - I think it's a GM color. Dark gray metal flake was the name though... I think it would look good on you neutral color themed interior.

would look good with the silver accents mike?
