    so, what do y`all think :p













    now that it`s all done, i think i may want to send the radio cover and the center console part back again. The silver really does stick out now. I`m thinking about having them paint it a dark grey to match the rest of the interior. thoughts?



    excuse the smudging

    What do I think? I thought they were going to dig up your body with Hoffa`s. About the paint, I think the silver offsets the blue nicely. WB.

    Yeah man welcome back



    I like the contrast of the blue/silver. If any part sticks out too noticeably I feel it is the steering wheel pieces, that`s all.

    I like it! The silver matches the pedals too. One thing that may work too- Have you ever thought about painting the circles on your pedals blue too? I think that`ll look super good.

    Maybe try photoshop to see what it would look like all blue, or with coordinating colors. Maybe just have the Scion script silver to start with.

    Looks great...did you paint the silver yourself or did it come that way. I painted part of my interior silver because it had some bad scrapes in the rubber and it looks much better now

    the parts that are silver, were that color before. the painter just masked it off.



    I don`t know how well painting the knobs on the pedals would work. For one, i`m always stepping on them, so the paint would get worn down quite quickly. and 2, i don`t know how well paint would adhere to rubber



    ooo and i am planning on painting in the "SCION" on the radio cover back to silver in the near future

    Looks nice. I would keep the silver as is. Nice contrast to the blue and gray, and goes well with the pedals.
