You did that yourself? Looks really cool man, I like it!! I'll be doing some more red on mine in the near future, that's a really solid effort :)

Looks like youve done a quality job from what can be seen. Having said that, youve done too many bits in my in my opinion. I made that mistake with dipped parts a number of years ago (did the same bits you have pictured except for the panel under the steering wheel). With the red, I would have stuck with the centre console parts and maybe the instrument cluster surround, but the rest I would have left in black.

Doesnt matter what I think though, if you like it, thats the most important thing ;) .

    Because you asked for an opinion.. And not being an ass, or trying not too..

    But Owwww my freaking eyes!

    Nothing wrong with some highlights of an interior, but way too much read. Makes a nice looking mid range sports car look cheap and tacky. Want an expensive look, pick small parts and do in brushed aluminium, or carbon fibre.. Hell, do what I did to my Evo/GSR and wrap the entire insides in seude but use red stitching..

    Anything but paint..

    But, as ithers will tell you, each to their own, and do whatever you think looks good to your own ride. If we all thought the same, it would be a booring life..
    I just had to add it ......

    Great effort.
    Must have taken a while to strip, paint and assemble.
    If you like it that is all that matters, we are all personalizing our FTO's.

    In summary
    Looks good on your car...

    Too much red. Removing the carpets will make a huge impact by itself. Grab a black floor mat and take some pics and post here. :)

    Personally, if it was my car and I was doing that theme on the interior, I wouldn't have red floor mats, red seats, or red under the steering wheel.
    But that's just me, If you like it then that's all that matters :)
