Default gloss black interior pics?

Does anybody have pics of their car with the interior pieces painted gloss black? Mine are silver now and I've just gotten tired of the color somewhat. If not gloss black what else would you suggest? You can see pics of my car in my sig. Thanks.

Since you asked for an opinion I would say NONE. The first time I saw a silver painted interior I thought Hmmmmm, that's kind of cool but I wouldn't do it to my car. But now I think it just looks cheap and cheezy. (Sorry)

To be constructive I would suggest you trade for some unpainted pieces and try to accent your interior in a more subtle way. Like with some white or silver gauges, T'A bezel, Billet A/C *****, Carbon fiber coverings, billet lighter, or even some nice leather seat covers.

You want you mods to flow and not be so "In Your Face" like the painted pieces appear IMO. If getting new stock pieces or trading is not an option try using a nice graphite or gunmetal color that is toned down a few shades from the silver. They just might look great painted then.

Good Luck!

thanks for your honest opinion.

I can get some of the interior pieces to replace mine but I'll still have to find a console and they don't come cheap. I think I'll try the charcoal color or gloss black first. Thats the cheapest way out right now.

I just ordered some of the boyd smoothie 2's with the charcoal centers so this might be a good idea.

Look on like page 3 on my cardomain site. I had gloss black panels on my 99 Z and loved the way they looked.

SK I think your pushing a little more than 375hp. Are you just leaving that on there so you don't scare to many people off . That's a lot of pics you have and very nice ones too.
