I want to get rid of the woodgrain and i would like to know what color you guys think would look best. I have a white g (soon to be pearl white) with tan leather interior. I started messing with some paint to get an idea of how black would look in my g. I painted the radio/hvac trim black but it came out quite shitty cuz i rushed. What do you guys think would look nice in my g? Also pics would be greatly appreciated. I plan to do this right the first time so i dont have to touch up periodically. SEM high build primer, a shit load of sanding with various grits, PPG car paint and clear coat. Thank God my family owns an autobody shop so i have access to all this shit.

personally, I think that white looks nice on tan. Thats what I have now. But I'm making my whole interior black and then leaving the trim white.

I have tan color and switched it for the CF parts, I think it would look better with a dark grey or black.

i've had the same problem.. desiding whether or not to change my trim from tan to black or dark grey.. i already have a CF benzel and soon changin the woodgrain to CF. i personally think a darker color would look great. Not only that but it wont get dirty as fast as you would with white.

I was debating the same issue a couple months back and started with the gauge pod. I painted mine white with krylon paint and primer. Also printed some custom gauges that i photoshopped from the stock ones. I haven't yet painted the woodgrain but I'll probably do black around the stereo and shifter and try to color match the tan on the doors. I also have a white g with tan interior.
