So you would carry the sterling gray down the middle of the console too (currently white)?

Hey hardcore,

I really appreciate the help and I'm liking your idea more and more. I've been driving all day with the console in just trying to decide if it's turning out like I wanted and I'm realizing it's not.
I am horrible with color design and thought this would look good but it's way to loud. You think I would be better at this considering the field I'm in , I can set stone like a **** but ask me color questions and .... Well, you see what happens. I guess it's good most of my work comes from designers
Anyways, I would much rather wrap with vinyl than paint for various reasons so I grabbed my vinyl swatches and found these, seem along the lines of what you were thinking?

Yup. For sure. I think that'd look great!

I'd personally go for glossy vinyl myself.

I think your a fricken outstanding guy hardcore! Please excuse my pathetic "photoshop" but it's enough to visualize. I'm going to veer away from gloss just due to reflection but am going to use satin for the black and the matte aluminum/dark gray have a nice metallic sheen to them, especially around the curves. I cut a few of my swatches and stick them to the dash to look at tomorrow but so far I'm way happier with this direction, thank you soo much!

As long as you like it, that's what matters! I personally don't like white/chrome in the interior as I spend A LOT of time in my truck, and having "bright" colors inside my truck is a visual distraction in bright sunlight. But that's just me. I like the outside of your truck. Looks good.
