Default Chrome or brushed OR both

Ok I have seen a whole lot of stuff that Im wanting to put in the interior of my car, the only problem with that is some of the stuff I have seen was available only in chrome finish or only in brushed or satin finish. Would it look bad to mix the two or would that be an ugly no-no. Have any of you fellas done this? If so I would like to see some pics of your creations.... Thx

I don't think it would be bad, if done right. If you have the interior upgrade package, you already have satin and chrome mixed. you have the vent trim rings chrome, but the sterring wheel satin, along with the satin dash panel and chrome cluster bezel. I've been contemplating getting a Hurst for my '07, but I have purchased satin bezels for my console. Upon thinking about it, though, it'd be the same as what you're talking about. It probably would be fine.

I wouldn't put anything in the car. I think it makes it look tacky.

If you must though, go with brushed. The chrome just gets fugly quick.

+1 the interior is already mixed, so you could go either way and mixing won't make it look bad.
