What color interior?

I just finish painting one of my projects, now im waiting to finish the interior, just want to get some opinions on what color to go with the interior. I wrapped 2 dash pads one black and one red. What color do yall think would look better? Does anyone have pics of red interiors?

Re: What color interior?

I vote for black. That black dash pad looks good. I might need me one of those for the crew cab.

Re: What color interior?

Red on red looks gaudy in my opinion. I'd vote for gray, black, or tan like mine.

Haha. Beware whatcha wish for.


For the original question I would do anything you think looksgood except red. Ithink the red on red is too much. Anything else that doesn't clash will look good. Youjust need to go with your gut

Re: What color interior?

is the truck air conditioned? Black attracts heat and although all vynal will make it hotter in there black seems to make it hotter.. Id go with either tan or grey if it was my truck although im more partial to the grey. If you would like to see pics of a red truck like that with a grey interior, search member Keith Seymour he has a beast like that

You answered your own question. And correctly in my opinion of those 2 choices.

Tan or red.

Black interiors are boring and bland, and way over done IMO. Besides, try to find black seatbelts, that are affordable.

Re: What color interior?

Mine was burgandy interior/red exterior originally.

I went back together with a black interior; I like it - I think it really "pops".

K
























Jeff - I'm disappointed in you....
