Default Interior mod color question ?

I ordered from Apsis the door armrests with ebony top and jetstream blue sides. I am going to get the center console lid also. Should the lid top be ebony, jetstream blue sides ? Or jetstream blue top, ebony sides ? Should it match ? Does it matter ? I am putting Grand Sport and the flag on it . Thanks. Jersey said it looks nicer with blue top,ebony bottom but if I do the GS logo it would look nicer on ebony. What should I do ? What will look the nicest all the way around ? My other trim pieces are JSB.

I am an all ebony guy, but if you want color, add color!

It will look great either way. Do what you think will look best.

Ebony on top where your arm will rest will look cleaner longer. (If you actually drive your car that matters) I always think the Colors belong on the sides as accents.

Don't know if this will help or not. Here's mine with elbow pads and the padded console cover in Ebony and Dark Titanium. Someone could photoshop it JSB for you maybe.

If jeresy is doing a GS logo.....I want to see it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



I would like to see what the logo looks like first before I would decide on color but probably go with black on top to accentuate the logo!

I already decided ebony top, JSB sides/ bottom with the same GS logo on my seats. I just sent Jersey a copy of the seat headrest logo so they will match. I think it will look great. Putting the c6 flag behind the GS logo.
