BTW another color i'm thinking about is charcoal or a smoked gray.

I would paint it the color of your truck IMO, unless you have a secondary color that you already use on your truck. I got some pics of mine if you want to check them out.

Pink or Black, its your choice. :) I plan on painting some of mine black, which I think should go good with my beige interior. Maybe you could get somone to lay out some flames going from your windshield up your dash, that would look pretty spiffy...

What's exterior color?

If Silver or Dark Grey....Pepsi Blue interior. Couldn't think of another name...just happen to have 1 liter bottle on my desk a kinda like the blue in the swirl logo. Not quite a solid color blue. Accents would be Denali wood grey.

Then just add some sparco red racing seats with the 5 point harness and strip the rest of the interior, and you'll be all set for a :woo: whistle tip!! :bling:


:kidding:

Actually that sounds pretty awesome, except maybe not all yellow, yellow AND black...now that would be bada$$ . :rocking:

If you don't like bright colors and are set on painting the interior then I would suggest your earlier specified colors of red or black or a combo of the two.

Go ahead if you want. I'd only do it if you plan on using professional materials or having it professionally done. I tried painting part of my dash once using "rattle can" paint and it ending up looking horrible. I spent the $100 bucks and went back to stock, I'll never touch my dash again until I know what I'm doing :D

Oh ok, that's a different story. :D

I just thought of a cool color -- silver or gunmetal / dark silver. Kind of like a brushed billet color. It might stand out too much so maybe only paint certain parts of the dash silver and the rest black. Extreme has a black truck and his dash bezel painted this way and it looks really good. I'll find a pic...
