Default MY Car, Would You Mod Red??

I love the Mod red interiors everyone is doing and I had an 02Z that was TR with Mod Red which looked great. Would you guys do a Mod Red interior on a MY Car?

Whenever I see red mixed with yellow, I think either mustard & ketchup or McDonalds. Personally, I think the oak/black combo matches up better with a Millenium Yellow C5.

I really like a mod red interior, but I'm not sure I would like it all that much on a MY car. I agree that the black/oak combo would look killer in the car.

I really only like the Mod Red on the Black cars. I wanted it on my Torch Red Z, until I saw it in person. My wife (who has much better style/taste) commented that it was too much red.

I love Mod Red...but not with Yellow.

Red, black white look best Electron Blue looks good too.

Red interiors only look OK in old Cadillacs.

Black / Yellow. Not Red unless you are Ronald McDonald, or own the Mcdonalds corporation, and if that's the case get a red C5 then.

I vote no. I agree, mustard and ketchup look.


Honestly though, with the door open, it takes away from the rest of the car. JMHO

Why not Mod Yellow? take your stuff to a local shop. i bet it wont cost more to have yours redone then to buy them. i spend $600 on my door panels, knee bolster and glove box. wouldnt that be enough money to cover having yours redone?
