My choices were this idea or go with piano black trim.. I already knew I wanted black but i didnt know how to co about it. With the all black car i figure it cant hurt going with shades of black.

Thanks for the honest opinion..

oh man, piano blk probably would make u OCD.

i would be soooo mad if i got swirls on the piano blk trim pieces. its so obvious and inevitable in gettin swirls on that trim (not that ne other trim gets swirls), but its more noticeable on the piano blk trim.

how much longer til u ets? i got a yr left in the reserves...cant wait to be out!

I think it looks good but I probably would have gone for nappa. I'm curious, did you notice any difference in sound inside the car after this, i.e. did it get a bit quieter after covering up all the hard pieces? Kudos on uniqueness...

I like it, but doubtful I'd do it on mine since the interior is yellow ( whatever the friggin color is called )

I was going to get the tan interior but while i was deployed she changed the interior color to black on the order form... and now i just want everything black... So whem my wife says "you bought something else for the car" i tell her its her fault because she changed the interior color...

Dude, your car looks nice! I can appreciate the uniqueness and the most important thing is that you like it. Keep rolling with it and when you get done everyone will be trying to copy you since its original and unique. Good luck with your SFQC.
