Default Billet interior parts in a charcoal gray interior?

I might purchase a black/charcoal gray 2000 GT with 42,000 miles on it later next week. I want to upgrade the appearance of the interior with some billet parts because I like the way they look in black interiors, but I'm not sure how they would look on a gray dashboard. The main brands I'm looking at are MGW and Steeda (for everything MGW doesn't have). What do you guys think? If you're for billet, do you think chrome or silver finish looks better?

I like the brushed metal look. Steedas billet is like that. But my interior isnt black or gray so It doesnt look nearly as good as it would in yours.

I have quite a few satin billet pieces on my car with the charcoal interior. I also have a satin billet Steeda shift **** and also have a stock instrument cluster with the satin billet background for sale if you are interested.

Brushed metal sounds nice, wish I could compare all the trims in person though. Do you have any interior pics? I take it you have a tan interior?

yeah I have the tan interior. I only have the steeda shifter bezel and headlight ****.

If I had a black car I would do the shifter bezel, the headlight ****, the tilt stearing ****, the wiper switch, door handles, ac *****, ebrake, the door lock pins. and maybe the lock/unlock and window *****. but I like to keep everything the same type of finish so I would go all steeda.

i really want the door handles but they are 130.00 http://www.steeda.com/store/-catalog...oorhandles.htm

Sweet, I was looking at those door handles for a while too. I wish there were pics of those installed though, I don't want a few random billet parts throwing off the look of the interior. Everything needs to flow[sm=smiley33.gif]

I saw the door handles in a steeda car at the track and they look sweet! but your right, everything needs to fit together.

I went with the satin billet from UPR, they have everything in 1 interior package you'd need or want.

Shiny crap is for fishermen & 80's Chevy Caprices with 24" rims. Just looks so gaudy....
