Your opinion: Interior color choices.

Since I just recieved my new GT2 wing today, I am going to be dropping the car off at the paint shop later in the week. Since it will be there I am going to have the lower front lip painted body color, and I am going to have all the interior trim that came in the aluminum color painted black as well. Just deciding between going with a gloss black like the rest of the car, or going with a matte black, to tone it down a little.

Thoughts???

Matte black interior trim or gloss black.

Gloss black for sure. Body colored interior trim was a factory option (center console, air vents, dash trim strip, rear console, etc). The gloss black should look nice. What color is your interior?

I had the glossy black done in my turbo and loved it. Only thing, it does leave finger prints.

Habitat,

That looks amazing. I think that just sold me on the gloss. I am having Pennmark do the work up in West Chester. They did my wheels and I was very happy with them.

Gloss Black. Flat will look cheap since the outside is close.
