Default Interior Idea

Ok...so like a lot of people I have noticed on here, I am tired of my tan interior. I'm wanting to put in black interior (carpet, headliner, racing seats, and redo the dash.) I also want Orange and Carbon Fiber accents in it. I dont know what material I want to redo my pillars, dash, and headliner in yet. Suede does like nice, but Im thinking vynil for some of it. Would a suede dash with black vynil headliner and door panels look good? And im thinking orange on the door trim and the center console trim with carbon fiber around the auto trans shifter (saw in another post and it looked cool.) What u guys think? And i do plan on doing a fiber glass door panel to put in some bigger door speakers that I found at an audio shop that are orange so it would go good with the orange accents.

I say do what you like and don't worry abut everyone else. If orange is what you like then go with it. I say do your wood grain in orange and maybe a few other little items. Jmo

Black exterior makes it sound much better. And after re-reading it, doesnt sound like too much orange. I say go for it.

I was planning on the wood trim being orange actually along with the surround that goes around radio /ac controls. May not be able to get the orange speakers i had seen since i dont know the brand....if not...going full alpine type-s except for the 8" sub....going to be a type-r since they dont make an 8 in type-s. I also chose orange becaude i havent seen many cars with orange accents. I think it would also look good with a little CF too

A Black & orange combo wont look that bad if you want something that stand's out, heres another member SC:

For the interior, be subtle and don't overwhelm with eye candy and you'll be fine.

Love the orange rims....and the orange carbon fiber is sweet....but i dont know how to lay carbon fiber so the area i am going to do will be a flat surface. I also think that the little bit of CF will pop since itll be the only thing with a design

To each to their own personally I don't care for it but if it makes you happy rock it its your car your doing it to please yourself not others right? so if you like it rock it why would you do something to please people you don't know?

I like to get other peoples opinions on where the accents should go. And feedback on ideas is always good because it leads to better ideas and sites where i can find material. Really hope i can find an upholstery shop near me
