Default Tan Interior with Ebony dash, console etc.

I have a complete tan interior from a `99 Trans Am that I was planning to put in my Firehawk, which has ebony interior. I bought this tan interior before I realized that the console, dash, a-pillar plastic, and door handles were a black color instead of the charcoal color which used to come in all interiors. All this didn`t come with the tan interior I bought.
So I am considering using the ebony dash with the tan interior, but it will require cutting up the door panels. What do you think? Should I try to find a charcoal dash, console, etc? Or should I try to be unique with the ebony peices? Has anyone ever seen or done this?

Wow. That does look good Bit. Did you replace the interior yourself? Or do all Camaros come with the black dash and console?

Thanks guys. I`m feeling better about this now.
Those of you who think it would be just "ok", do you feel it would look worse than the charcoal?

Personally I would keep the Ebony. Obviously you don't want to and I think it will look fine.

Just use the tan door panels as they are..
