Sorry, that looks frikkin gross. But then again, I've never been a fan of even "highlight" seat panels, they firmly belong in the 1970's - A time before leery interior decor was found to induce epileptic seizures ! (that's a joke BTW).

I'd REALLY appreciate it!
I was lucky enough to stumble across a guy on Ebay who had just bought the Silver set for his car and was just trying to unload his Black set, ironic eh? I think I paid like $50 for the whole thing

I don't have any pics, and the car is up on a lift right now so I can't easily get to it, but you can see it in this video quite well......

The red kinda looks cool.
I wonder what a black semi gloss would look like?

I also wonder if you can get covers instead of having to paint.
Wonder how either of those colors would look as covers?

you know, i was thinking the same thing about covers and then i started to think about the local stripe guy here in town. He does some awesome work with custom stripes and graphics for ricers and other folks. I wounder why you couldn't just pull those parts and have someone who knows what they are doing lay down some glossy vinyl on top of the factory part in whatever color you want. I don't think you would be able to tell it wasn't paint and if you didn't like it after a few months you can just pull it off.

FWIW i beleive that is the same company that makes that kit over on the SHR site, presumably it woudln't match up perfectly either as someone stated about that kit.
