hyper black is dope. honestly though, my civic is silver and I have gunmetal w/ polished lip and its dope as hell.

also DO NOT paint the interior. especially white. I say especially white because...well just go throw you some white pieces of paper on your dash and drive around for a day or two. the glare will make your car seemingly undrivable.

i was under the impression that hyperblack were actually "more mild" than gunmetal. i've looked at some pictures and thats the way it appears. someone post some pictures of hyperblack and gunmetal rims please. thanks

I'm sorry, but once the word "ractive" was brought up, I lost all interest. Have you thought about making your car NOT slow, or perhaps handle well? Seems like those ought to be higher up on the list than shift boots and dash painting.

Sorry, not trying to rain on your parade.... but seriously. :happysad:

who cares what the interior looks like. i have a tan interior, and i've been thinking about swapping, but screw it. as long as i'm comfortable, it's all good. besides, oem charcoal gray >>>>>>>>>>>>> painted interior.

theres nothing wrong with stock... if you customize it too outrageously, you'll just get sick of it after a while, and spend more money than you spent customizing it just to return it to stock. IMO, anything more than a tasteful shiftknob or a steering wheel (if you don't have SRS) is too much.

stop being a ****ing sheep.. if you want to paint your interior then paint it.. you dont have to go fast or corner well if that is not what you are after.. i HATE when people talk others out of shit.. get your OWN mind and make your OWN opinions..


i think painted interior is one of the most EXTREMELY gay things you could POSSSIBLY do.. but hey its not my car.. i also thing seeking shift boots and ebrake handles are gay.. but some people dislike things i do.. so whatever.. the problem is when you stop listenign to yoruself and start listening to others.. cars SHOULD be about what YOU want it to be.. not how to be cool or accepted..
