I cant set them back any further,theyre too big.Im thinking about mounting them upside down handing and setting them a little more apart. As for the "spoiler" does it actually have a purpose??

I'd go with baby blue, jet-black (that's what it's called lol), and possibly another color of your choice .. maybe silver, white, or beige?
Start off with your primary color, then the other colors are accents of that.
Remember, the key to making it look good and stay custom is to give it the OEM 'look' but having it all be custom colors. Check out some show cars interiors before you do this (of tibs if possible, might be hard to find though), now that you've decided to do things the RIGHT way, do it once and for all (until someday you get bored with it hehe)
You could make it look real nice with just 2 colors also. Definitely jet-black though (Personally I'd use the HOK black pearl) not flat.
If you're satisfied with the job and plan on keeping it nice for awhile, then klear koat it too.


Oh yeah, and Good Luck!

well honestly a LOT of the show cars Ive seen have the ENTIRE interior painted ALL one weird ass color. My gf wants an eclipse and we were lookin on cardomain and found this purple one from wilkes barre, pa. It had the interior completely painted the same color as the exterior with a few things black i.e. the door handles.

When I painted it this time I sprayed it white first as a base coat because I wanted the blue to be as light as possible.The paint I used however SUCKED A**.I used the Krylon H2o stuff.Its supposed to work for metal,rubber,plastic,and paint etc.That stuff ran more than a fat kid when his mom gets home with the groceries.

Not the best color in the world, but a whole lot better than anything you had before!!!
