Default Interior color changes

My car is color is Electron Blue with a white top,red calipers.

Thinking of new floor mats in a color other than black. Also,looking ahead to two tone shifter boot and door handle wraps.

Sliver,red?

Any pictures or ideas would help.

My interior is black. Looking for a good contrast to my interior and exterior colors.

Light gray or shale would look good with the blue and give you additional options for future interior improvements as parts in these colors are readily available.

I went with Electron Blue/Black accents in the interior of my Electron Blue Coupe... Red would also look nice too!

I have pics of course for reference if needed

I have an EB car that came with the light gray interior. I changed things up a bit with a mod black interior theme. Here's some pics. I know your's is all black right now, but some light gray or even a mod red interior would look good.





You could also consider getting things like the center console base, radio bezel and other parts of the dash painted body color to break up the all black interior.

Vetteman Jack,

I really like your interior colors. The light gray with EB or red will be my new interior colors.

Did you paint the console/parts?

Thanks for the pictures.Nice to see the end product before buying.
