Looks good but definitely needs more of the interior to be dyed the same color to blend in better.

Like garbage. Only can be pulled off in a car with black interior.

You can do the other interior too. Do two tone. Just more work to do carpets etc..

Black and red contrast looks nice!

I wonder how white on a millennium silver car looks.
