Default Decision about my custom interior

OK heres the thing, i am going to start on Monday re doing my interior...now for certain it's going to be leather w/ grayish pewter suede inserts, similar to color of the new realese series tC, the front door panels and rear quarter panels are being done on Monday in the suede, but what gots me is the headliner..as you know we have several gray plastic parts, so going black suede is out..i am thinking the same suede as the insert would be cool, now my friend becky just did hers in a similar suede color, but for her headliner she went 2 tone, the A pillars in black, and also the pillar by the seatbelt..so what do you think, since my rear quarter panels are going to be off should i have the seatbelt pillar done in black or the pewter..here are some pics of hers tell me what you think..

Front A pillars and seatbelt pillars in black suede, and headliner in grayish suede



Suede Door Panels



tC release series color that i have decided to go with

If you're going to do the headliner then you definately need to do all of the pillars the same material. And as for the plastic pieces on the headliner, have them painted.

I did my door panels in grey suede last summer also! But I decided to go with black suede on the headliner, pillars, and center console. I think that it turned out well (even with the grey pieces), since I have a carbon fiber theeme going with the dash kit and lip kit, etc.
I think what you've decided to do will look great! Go with it!

OK the moment has arrived, my interior is done, with the exception of the visors, i did not want to lose the mirrors, so it will be completed on Friday..and of course there's my seats which are going to be black leather w/ the same suede insert, but thats later after i get back from 2 major car shows this month, and recover from my mod spending spree, let me know what you think...

I think that B-pillar stands out like a sore thumb.

thats neat..not bad

i like it but i'm a lil OCD and all those marks on that suede would drive me crazy. I couldn't have that, i'd be constantly trying to get it all even and smooth while im driving - end up running into something haha

and the b-pillar does stand out. your eyes kind of stop and you're like 'whats wrong?" but other than that, looks clean. laps:
