looks good man! but dont add red accents, IMO that will make your car look cheap, stay all black or just leave em alone, but that center console looks awesome!

I think spray painting anything in the interior looks nightmarishly bad. Especially bright colors, but even dark looks cheap.

Seeing brighter colored pieces always reminds me of when I was a kid and I'd make car models, and my friends would too, and they'd paint the axles yellow, and the mufflers red, and the leaf springs gold... Yes, technically you CAN do that, but...

As the saying goes, discretion is the greater part of valor, or whatever.

I guess opinions are like.......everybody's got one and they all stink. HAHA. I just felt like changing it up a bit. I'm gonna have to take it out and do it again, but it wouldn't be that much fun if I was good enough to take it out, paint it in the dark, and throw it back in. Now I'll be better for when I finish up. I guess at least I'm not claiming to be bad *** at it?

Exactly...I guess? All I know is, GM made my car, and GM decided what color to make the plastic, and that's the color my plastic still is.

Get us some pics of the pieces in the car with the tops off and in sunlight to see how it looks naturally and then at least I could give my judgement on them then.

I do think that if you like it then that is cool.
