Default Leather wrapped radio pillars. What do you think ?

Like it or not ?
I bough two extra pillars and wrapped them in red leather. I kind of like the look. I'm thinking paint the radio trim red to kind of make it blend. anyways, thoughts on this..
( I like constructive criticism )

I would have to see it in person but the colors look a little off.

I would have painted them but it looks good. You need to get a carbon fiber or a darker dash kit

Have you thought about getting a red leather steering wheel cover that you can stitch on over the existing charcoal leather? That might complement the center red color rather nicely.

Looks good , floor mats trimed in red would also help accent it and not over do it

I think it's a cool idea, plus I'm sure it looks a lot better in person. But personally I'd get a darker red (if you can't tell by my redfire ) Good job though!

thought about changing the stiching on the steering wheel to red. I just don't know what size thread, what type, and where the heck to buy it from. I remember someone on these forums changed the thread to white. I just can't find that thread to find out who it was and send him/her a pm.

Burrosito, I'll have to take pictures without the flash. the leather looks pink in those pics. it's not that bright.
