Hello so I got tired of my faded blue interior and took it all apart today cleaned it up and primer it.. Now I was looking for a dark grey matte or satin but cant find any.

So i need someones else's opinion because this light grey is kinda growing on me...

Light Grey

OR

Dark Grey

 

Here it is placed together and strangely the first can of primer was darker than the second....

 

I would say darker.

 

Definitely darker. The dark grey looks good with anything.

 

pink.....

 

Lol

 

I believe the color of interior is best compared to the trucks exterior color. I myself am a huge fan of the brown colored interior. The brown goes really well with red, white, copper and a few other colors. Keep this is mind when painting your interior.

If grey is getting to ya, have ya considered black. Gloss or satin looks really well with most exterior colors. Another thing is black covers really well. My local napa even caries a interior paint that covers vinyl, leather, and fabric. I used there brown on my Saturn bucket seats and they match my interior perfect now. Been painted for well over a year and there's still no wear on my seats.

 

I got a black grey and brown mix interior that looks ok (i need to lose the brown) so you might mix colors that accent each other

 

darker colors will hide more dirt and show less wear and tear on the inside. Lighter colors will almost amplify the wear and tear on the interior. So what do you plan on doing with the truck?? Also the darker color will absorb more heat and make the inside hotter. I had a flat black truck with black interior... The summer time was almost unbearable....

 

Well thanks for replies i'm gonna go with dark grey because of the fact that lighter will show more dirt and imperfections... Should be done later today maybe ill post some pictures up.

 

Did you finish this project yet? I wanna see some pictures. I have brown interior and its looking rough, i was thinking about doing the same thing this spring, just wondering how it turned out.

 

Sorry never looked back on this but yea I think it looks a million times better than what it did....

Just remember light coats and for the best results I removed it all.

 

That looks awesome! I'm for sure doing that when it gets warmer! What products did u use?

 

Cleaned them really good.

I used almost 2 cans of primer (that bonds to plastic) Couple coats each.

Then got a couple cans of Dark Grey Vinyl spray paint at autozone about $7 each.

And that was it!
