I want to paint the interior like gauge surround, vents, etc., but not sure what color do it. My three choices are to match my seat insert(sonic blue), CD silver or shiney black.
What do you guys think?

Well if it was me it would either be a color match to the CD silver (same way Jarrod did it, body shop painted them professionally, awesome results and exact colormatch) or the blue to match the seats.
If it was me, I think I would do the blue cause the interior would flow really nice but in saying that though, I have always preferred the exterior colormatch dash pieces on silver, grey, white cars.
I dunno, hard choice, I wouldn't go black cause it's to 'typical'
Wow, yeah I can see why you asked this question......
I think if I had a choice, I would go with the blue. The interior would match very nice.

Your kidding...right.
I've leaning toward the blue but I don't think I want it sonic blue a little darker.

How about a silver blue pearl metallic, now that would look sick and cover all the angles!

The vents really don't need that much attention
drawn to them, so painting them gloss black .
As for gage pod sonic blue would "Rule!" then do the radio surround sonic blue as well include the ashtray.
I don't know how it would look but you could paint the
shift console sonic blue to?

I like Malby7 ideal of silver blue pearl metallic (gauge surround & stereo) and painting the vent a glossy black so you know they are there but don't stand out. I have an in at a local bodyshop and have to see what colors the may be able to come up with.
BTW thanks for the suggestion, guys.
When I get it done I will post some pictures.

Yeah I thought about it some more Donna, definitely DEFINITELY go with a blue to match the seats. The whole black/dark SVT blue interior.... awesome stuff!! That would be my choice. :)
