actually, usually silver does look good on any color BUT i think it will look funny or clash with that color.

i think it would look sweet to do the interior peices in the same exact color as the color. would look sublte and clean since its not like bright yellow.

carbon fiber is also everyones favorite.

i'm gonna go ahead and agree with him..but make sure its not pep boys krylon DIY ghetto style. Have it professionaly done at a paint shop, or by someone with a gun that is good. Interior accents look great painted the same color as the car as long as the color is exact and is done right.

But thats just my opnion.

Project2k2 is on a distinguished road
I say go for the car color, only because nothing else really goes with it except MAYBE carbon fiber. I dunno, I think our stock interiors will do just fine.

Yeah if your going to paint it, get it done professionaly so its the exact same color and will also have a coat of clearcoat so it looks identical. Pep boys will not due.

As for the dash kit- im all about the dash kit myself too, but they wont have one for his color. I myself have the OEM Silver and its alright, i think its better than the ebay ones, but the vents arent realyl stuck on very well.

ALSO- dont over due what you paint, there is a thing as TOO MANY painted interior peices. I would do around the CD and AC controls, the air vents and then the door handles (and then repaint your window switches, mine came silver stock)

do the car color, i think it will be better in the end. carbon fiber has been done a billion times and this would be a little different due to the color of your car.
