Interior Accessory Color Choices
I've been thinking about getting a few interior accessories to go with my Cobalt Blue Tib, but I'm having trouble choosing what color to go with. I want to get the Momo King Shift Knob, Racing Pedals, E-Break, and Door Sills and I've narrowed it down between Blue and Red, but I'm not sure if I should go with Carbon Fiber or Aluminum pedals or what set of sills I should get. Here are some pics of all the items:
Momo King Shift Knob-
Red Momo King Shift Knob
Momo E-Break Handle-
Momo Racing Pedals (Carbon Fiber)-
Momo Racing Pedals Aluminum-
Momo Door Sills-
I've chosen not to paint my dash, so color matching with that won't be an issue. The stock interior is pretty dark, so I'm thikning the Carbon Fiber might be better, but then again, Aluminum would stand out more. And I'm still not sure which sills would go best. Its kinda hard to picture all this stuff in your car w/o having actually seen it in person
Anyway, I just figured I would get everyone's opinion on this and see what you think.

Go with the brushed aluminum/shiny aluminum.
It will match the silver of the 2001 dash. CF on interior bits just looks cheezy to me, unless the part is full CF.

Well I like CF but like Random said, it only looks good unless you have other things done in CF. The alum. would look good since the inside already has some alum. It's up to you on the color scheme if you decide to go with colors. Just make sure if you pick one thing that you stick with it and everything is the same..then it'll look sweeeeeeeeet! Good luck! wink.gif
Get the wooden e-brake handle. That way every time you park you can yank on your woody! HA_HA HA tongue.gif ---tear---HA. Sorry if only I thought that was funny.
ANYWAYS...Go with silver all the way unless you have a good color scheme going.

Thanks for the advice guys!
I never noticed that our door sills were that big before, the Momo ones are 1 3/8" and the stock ones are about 2.5 times that. I guess I'll wait on the sills...I don't think they would look too good being that small.
I agree with the carbon though the more I think about it, I'm not planning to have anything else done in carbon, so it would look kinda out of place.
One thing I noticed when looking at the E-Break order page was that you have to get special adapters in order for it to work with the stock button. Of course, they don't have an adapter for Tibs...do you guys have any idea if one of these cars' adapters would work?
Adapter #A3
99-up VW Golf IV
99-up VW Jetta IV (vento)
99-up VW Passat
Adapter #A6
90-93 Acura Integra
94-00 Acura Integra
92-98 BMW E36
90-93 Honda Accord
94-97 Honda Accord
98-up Honda Accord
88-91 Honda Civic/CRX
92-95 Honda Civic
96-00 Honda Civic
93-95 Honda Del Sol
92-96 Honda Prelude
97-00 Honda Prelude
90-97 Mazda Miata
It also suggests that you get a new E-Break boot, but thats an extra 50 bucks or so, do you think it really needs this? Anyone ever installed a replacement E-Break Handle before? I've been trying to find the official Momo site to check it and see what they say about the adapters, but I haven't been able to locate it. Anyone know what their company site is? Thanks again for all the tips!
