Default Paint Preference?

OK, the interior or the car has accents of white around. the handles, the dash, etc.
Anyway, my question is this. I've got almost an all white car. white paint, rims, and interior. but i really dont like the white inside. I want to change it. I was actually thinking to go black, but want a second opinion before i do anything drastic.

I don't want to go all out and make it yellow or blue or something like that. something suttle. just not white.

I dont think it looks all that bad either but I think a glossy black would be better. Whats with the Turbo Timer on the steering column is it falling off or crocked or something

I peresonally have been introduced to Duplicolor and it is great. Put down a couple coats and a few coats of clear coat and it is sweet.

Thanks for all the imput, Ya i'm thinking to go black. And Yes Emonz, i know i need a short shifter. So, I like the sound of black and glossy black. Not too much into the whole carbon fiber on the inside. not my style.

Emonz- The turbo timer isn't held on at all. The only thing keeping it kinda in place is the wires going between plastic pieces in the steering colomn. Why they placed it there is beyond me [sm=headbang.gif]. My plan is after i get the aftermarked CD player and adaptor i'm going to place the turbo timer under the CD player. you know, in that little cubby they give you. That's where it's going next.

It's funny, the guy also had a White E-Brake cover. That came off the day i bought the car lol

just to keep that timer down you should at least get some velcro!!! LOL I think the white doesn't look too bad. I used to have a black car w/ white interior also. except mine kinda looked like a cow, Here are a couple pics. Everything including the seat covers are my own custom jobs. I had my mother make the seat covers from scratch,
