looks clean. I am divided on painting it or keeping the wood. I have to decide as I will be doing my interior soon.

Is the wood foe finish???

the wood trim definitely makes the interior look old. The sparkly gloss black looks awesome.

Now you've just gotta get something to clean the rest of the guts ;-)

The gloss black looks great. That's the look I was going for with mine but it didn't turn out quite that well. Maybe it's the clear coat.

Black looks good! Great job, lots of gloss!
Go for the black tan combo, it will look stunning!

wow that looks awesome.... what did you use to make it look like black wood?
i was thinking of doing this as well using a dark stain, something like ebony and then topping it with poly urethane..... would like to here your take!

Guys, I guess I should not have posted pics up on CleanShots thread. Sorry CleanShots! Just wanted to show you Black/tan combo.
Thanks for all the positive remarks, if you still have questions hit me with a PM.

Thread is back to you CleanShots! I like where your car is headed.
