Custom two-tone interior project! ***TEASER PICS***
Ok, so some of us might be content with the nasty-azz grey we have in our interiors, but not I. SO, I will be painting all of the OEM Grey interior parts a glossy bone. This will be a perfect match to the Black & Bone color leather interior I will be sporting in a few months. 
Just a few teaser pics as things get underway...

Now, let's move on to the door trim. The first primer I used was teh suck, so I had to go back and sand it all off and go at it again. Here, you see it with the adhesive promoter after sanding.
...and installed.

i think when things start coming together, the interior will look more into place. Have you though of putting body filler anywhere to fill in the texture (like the sunglass holder and lower door halfs)?

Have you thought about, or tried, matching the grey pieces to the titanium color in the TE package? I ask because I have a stock grey center vent piece (to go around a Kenwood Nav system), but it clashes a little with the rest of the TE package. I was thinking about trying to match it, but I don't know how hard it would be...but changing all the grey to silver might provide some nice contrast too, especially in a black car...

And yes, it looks a little out of place, but I am not not even nearly done working on it yet.
I'll try to get a more accurate picture of the color, the pics I took kind of skew the color as it was quite dark & cloudy when I took the final pics.

I would love to go, but between all of the projects, it looks like my interior took a trip to the chop shop.
Get some pics for us!!!!

I tried that on my Legend Coupe once, and it was too much for the car. I did my vent trim pieces, and other misc console items. At first I thought it was a good idea since it would match the pearl white of the car. (I painted all of it pearl white with color code to match car) Needless to say, it didn't have that show car appeal pictured in my head and instead, had quite a ricey effect. Reverted back to flat black and it was perfect. After my trial and error I found that it might be a little too loud for a dark interior unless your doing an all dash job. Good luck with it.

Plenty of riced out cars have their owners do this. But I don't make your car payments so good luck with the work.

I tried this when I owned an Intrepid, and it turned out horrible.
It is interesting, but the color scheme can't stand out, must be subtle, and must really match the interior.
Otherwise, IMHO I think...
