Default some nice interior customization ideas?

alright so i'm always thinking of ways to spice up my interior a little bit without breaking the bank. we're talking pretty cheap modifications here. i got a nice amount of oznium.com cathodes and L.E.D.s for well under $100. Pretty soon i'll be getting some paint to add some color to some interior parts (any color suggestions?? my lighting is blue and white, so i might paint some blue? or maybe just color match with the silver dash). Other mod i did (for ZERO dollars) was remove the rear center seat belt and headrest (the headrest holes are still there, but i'll figure that out eventually). i also removed the seatbelt safety tags (they're in my room... no worries). I'm always trying to think of other small things that would add some fun to our incredibly moddable interiors, so if you have anything to add to my idea list, post it!

get a piece of grey/black vinyl and cover the warning labels on the sun visors

obx pedals

shift ****

shift + ebrake boots (from redline goods)

suede on the door panels + rear side panels

dome/hatch/map lights to colored led's



i'd go w/ flint mica paint to match the exterior.

There was a company from Poland selling shift & ebrake boots made from Italian leather for $60. Those would be a nice touch.

suede you can get from Joann's fabric


and yeah, flint mica has alot of metallic flake in it. The grey plastic pieces are dull. you'll know the difference.

I've done the white LED guage/HVAC/steeringwheel controlls/door swap and it looks much better. When it warms up this spring, I'm taking all removeable interior pieces out (black and silver) and painting them flat black with a nice clear coat. I want something smooth and something that blends the entire inside into one color. Basically, riding stealth.
