Interior colors opinions - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I'm planning on redoing my interior before too long, and I really don't know what color combo I want yet. I'm going to wrap all the plastic in a leather feeling vinyl and have the billet inserts on the door panels and dash. I was thinking of either wrapping all the plastic in a light gray, painting all the metal on the bottom of the dash black, black carpet, and the main color on the seats black with gray inserts, and a black suede headliner and black suede inserts on the door panels. OR wrapping everything in black, still painting the metal black, black carpet, seats black with gray inserts, and a gray suede headliner and gray suede door panel inserts.

What do y'all think?

I really like the way your seat is. I am going to do mine the same but in a two tone blue.

Just got my dad's 84 GMC 3500 painted the same color. I cant tell from ur pic but do u have a bedliner?

I also restored the interior. I kept it Carmine red- maroon dash, maroon door panels, maroon cloth seat and black floor matt.
I thought about going black like Keith Seymore did to his red truck- It looks great- but I decided to stay stock. The red/black combo has a real nice offset look but i have/had 2 black interiors and I think there is a better choice of color for the summer sun.

Here's some pics:

Yeah here's my build log

not much of one since I didn't take any pictures before paint lol.
I'm going out to take some more pictures of it today, all lights, bumpers, etc are on now. Even put my Alpine 9887 and my 4 channel in so I have some tunes to ride to.

No bedliner yet, we just didn't spray the bed so it's the stock gray color. I'm thinking of doing a herculiner and spraying it myself since Line-X and RhinoLiner is so expensive.

Mr.Scary · 01-18-2010, 01:21 AM

man show thats some really, really nice interior!!!!! looks sick

*BGRAFX* · 01-18-2010, 09:10 AM

I think your on the right track...black and grey all the way! The Red looks good.

**old Rusty C10** · 01-18-2010, 01:55 PM

i like the grey with some accenting black too especially with the red outside... if it were lets say blue then blue and grey may be nice

Slick17 · 01-18-2010, 03:42 PM

I love the black and gray look. I always black everything out so it would be nice to see some more options that people have done.

qu1cks1lver56 · 01-18-2010, 08:23 PM

So Gray as the main color is in. Now what all should be black? I was thinking carpet, headliner, door panel inserts, and the seats black with gray inserts, but now I'm not sure.

For sure the door panel inserts will be black. But that's the only thing I know for sure.
What do y'all think?

**N2TRUX** · 01-18-2010, 08:48 PM

I like the lighter colors myself. I love what Hot Trucks is doing in is awesome red stepper..

1984 swb chevy · 01-18-2010, 08:56 PM

Here is a picture of my seat. It is black and grey. I did the door panels in black and the inserts in the same grey as the seat.

I like the looks of that seat; cup you like buckets, but open like a bench.

I had planned on doing something like that with my crew cab. All the "hard" parts like the door panels, dash pad, headliner trim, vinyl on the seats, etc. in charcoal then the soft parts like door inserts, carpet, headliner, fabric on the seats in blue.
The plan for the truck was two-tone blue and grey.

Anybody know where to order a seat like that?
I'm not looking for the same color, or even the same bench, but I just don't know where to start when looking for replacement seats.

I really want that style of bench, but with a flip-down center console that can either be an armrest, a storage bin/cup holder, or flip up and become a seat back. So far, I haven't seen this for sale anywhere.
