Default Interior colortone...

So I am a weird guy who likes things to be different then everything else. here is my colortone idea for my doors, since I have them off atm.

here it is now, all ugly gray!


here is a idea of what I would like it to look like.





I love the white on black look, if this is what I plan to do then the floor area will be black, maybe black seats with white dash and dealing

let me know what ya think so far, but please do not be harsh for having a creative mind.

So i would first have to sand downthe plastic stuff then spraypaint it artic white, I want to get a black handle rather then paint it black, that way the paint does not rub off.

I would spray the fabric stuff with black paint.

I would like to put in bigger speaker before I put the pannels back on the car.

Is there room for a 5.25" speaker (I am assuming that's what you have in there)? I would recommend adding tweeters to the doors like the 10 speaker version, and a Bazooka 6.5" powered sub like I did. That produces some good sound, and it's cheap. As for the colortone, it would look nice I think.

Honestly, I would not go with the black door pull. I think the interior will flow better with the pull the same colour as the white, letting the white "jump" the black fabric to pull together to the top and bottom of the door

I would make that white, but the paint would come off over use... I will paint the one I have not to see.

Be sure that you have the paint shot professionally, not just out of a spray can.

It does make all the difference.
