well, it is going to be my winter project, and i know that there is a huge long thread on this already, but my question is a little more specific because i've already decided on a color scheme (silver/blue)
anyway, i am putting in a new sunroof and have my headliner and ALL panels out, so if i am going to paint now is the time to do it, because im never removing that thing again..omg.
i think painting the headliner and the pillars would be something original...but i can't really think of a good color, and i think if i did it all silver it would just be too much.
right now i have all my blue accents (vents and switch panels) done in a mixture of anodized blue and a metal flake i found, so it is shiny/looks greenish blue in different lighting, pretty cool.
anyone have any ideas for the other stuff?

I did my pillars and rear side window surrounds silver along with my dash. IMO I think it looks good. The silver just kind of surrounds you, it looks more finished. I say do it.

headliner too? if i was going to do that, my plan was to yes do the pillars silver, do the vinyl on the bottom of the sunroof blue, but i still cannot decide about the headliner..plus would it look weird in the rear where those pillars come down? grr
