how about carbon resin mate, could get them done for a fairly reasonable prices, or white with black but add blue sparkle if your mate can spray

ma car colour is silver. Blue LEDS black alloys and side strips. But i think blue centre consol and air vents will look too tacky

I think some of the best interior mods are: black abc pillars/sun visors/center roof console and re-trimmed roof liner. So much smarter when all the colors kinda match

Remove the current one, I used auto glym black die. So its black now and looks smarter/darker. And yeah center roof console meaning the part with the light and the sun roof winder

Remove abc pillars
Remove roof console
Remove sun visors
Remove roof grab handles
Dont remove but half pull of the rear and front window seal at the top and the boot seal

Then should pull off

I personally think this is one of the best easy interior mods + its not expensive to do

Or instead of spray dying you could re-trim it like dano_vt did.
Looks amazing

Spraying dying is easy
Get some of this: (might need 2 cans as after a full can mine dried up a dark grey, I like it though)

Then just spray mate, light even coats (Mine doesnt look light an even but I did it quick)

Well I used 1 can of to do my roof liner, but 2 would be recommended for a dark black look, mine dried a dark grey

You are a bit ;)
I personally think black abc pillars ect look smarter than the horrible factory color
