Interior change idea.. colour...

1st June 2008, 13:40

Hey all, this is a pic of my current interior. I'm considering making a few alterations. First being the screen and separate dvd player. I'm going to get a new alpine dvd unit. Then i'm thinking about making a few colour changes. As you can see at the minute I have the dash trim colour coded in a creamy/white colour. What do you guys think to changing the entire black to white and then the dash trim to some other colour. What colours do you think would look best. Or is anyone able to photoshop these designs..
Pic of the car below as well if it helps in deciding on colour choice.

1st June 2008, 14:03

1st June 2008, 14:12

looks ok as it is tbh

1st June 2008, 14:13

tbh mate i'd say the colour co-ordiantion is pretty good as it is. i wouldn't mess with it too much or you mite end up going too far

1st June 2008, 14:25

oh okay then cheers

running out of mods now, looking at new wheels probably next
currently running on TSW Heat 15s
thinking about going for 16s in black with white or silver rim
Was going to go complete white but been advised against it on the car colour.

then i need something to do or i'll probably consider a new car shortly

1st June 2008, 14:31

if u want sumthin to do i'd de-wiper it. especially with the smooth tailgate. maybe a single wiper conversion for the front as well?

1st June 2008, 14:36

Hadn't even thought of that .. Great Idea and not too difficult I HOPE.. cheers

1st June 2008, 15:00

all id say change is your pillars to black ones and your roof linning to black aswell

1st June 2008, 15:33

Dewipering the back is a 2 minute job..

That wont keep him busy lol.

1st June 2008, 15:36

1st June 2008, 16:20

with what you have done inside you will have to get a leather wheel as im sure alcantara wheels will look daft!

Me thinks Gold wheels against the fantastic body colour would look ace.

Steve.

1st June 2008, 18:41

white dials ftw

1st June 2008, 18:56

first things first, NICE car mate, only thing that sticks out to me though is the colour of the dials!!! dont match the car that well

1st June 2008, 18:58

dont think ive seen gold wheels on that colour before.. what you all think to gold? was considering black with white rim round it.

i do quite like that wheel

should go well with the car thnks

1st June 2008, 18:59

I hadn't really noticed myself but now you point it out they are quite noticeable i'll get it sorted white dials it is

1st June 2008, 19:13

i prefered the first wheel, that looks a bit posh for a sax,

and p.s. stay away from gold wheels, seen em on a vtr of similar colour an was on floor laughing

1st June 2008, 19:21

Okay thanks well at least I'm getting somewhere
> White dials are a must
> De-wiper soon to be done
> Single wiper conversion on its way
> The choice of the 2 steering wheels, i prefer the look of the first but what do others think for my car?
> Roof lining for the future
> Wheels seem to be staying as they are until i can find something that will really set it off
> Considering hydraulics/air suspension even tho the high price.. the car is 2 low to get the drive ! but i wouldn't want it any higher.

1st June 2008, 19:24

Sounds pukka mate!! cant wait to see it done

1st June 2008, 20:40

is it me or does that gear knob look to be the wrong way round??

might be. mines a similar shape and faces the other way but its driver preference so who cares lol.

and with the white dials, you could always look at havin plasma dials. I've got them and luv 'em. A bit of a fuss to fit but only cause i didnt have everythin i needed when i started lol.

Mine was rusted, took 2 minutes..

Saw it off..

1st June 2008, 22:48

lol yea thats wot i ended up doin after 3 hours lol

1st June 2008, 23:19

can i ask, whre did u get ur seats from? ive been lookin for black and white ones!?

2nd June 2008, 14:14

Really like the way the car looks! Like others have quoted white dials would stand out better and the 1st steering wheel would look better with the rest of interior!

That's what i was thinking, the first wheel

you just made up my mind for sure.

2nd June 2008, 21:23

if that car was mine i would change the rear lights and the rims, to make it spot on

what rear lights would you go for mate..
the seal has gone in one of em now so condensation all the time!
so it would make sense to get this on the list of jobs as well. I'm not sure if dark lights would go that well. If i went dark it would make sense to have black wheels but i like the light, bright feel of the silver/white on dark car

2nd June 2008, 22:53

ah, see it looked light black n white sport seats, but it must hav just been me, coz i couldnt find white ones, at a decent price anyway, so grey ones it is. cheers anyway!

2nd June 2008, 23:04

I wouldnt go for dark rims, i agree that the contrast looks good, why dont you try some light silver and polished black multi spokes, umm. . . . . . o.z. do a good set like that

just had a quick look and couldn't find an OZ rim in silver with black spokes, you got a pic of them at all. Or can someone photoshop them in this colour so i can try them on my car ... cheers

oh rite lol nope they're not quite white.. the seats are gonna be coming out soon as well new cobras next

chrome rims for that car tbh, and lights probally something light maybe like the m3 style. but instead tinting bottom half red maybe green?

for the rims check out:

and for more unique and classy imo (price is dearer)

Second set is lush.

Liking the interior mate, looks very tidy. As said light change would improve it by loads.
