Well guys and gals, with my silver paint coming in the mail on monday for my center console, I have been looking ahead to future projects for my Z. Most of my work to my Z has been interior mods and I figured I would go ahead and complete the interior. So I have been thinking of trying to do something unique that I have not seen. I looked at bluebatmobiles vinyl overlays and came up with an idea...Why not trim my SB's interior with yellow, paint my engine pieces yellow, and repaint my brake calipers yellow. That would definatley be unique since I have never seen a SB in person or on this site done that way. My interior pieces will consist of:

yellow momo performance boot:

Either this momo sphere **** (havent decided yet):

Yellow seatbelt pads:

Yellow door barrel overlays from bluebatmobile
Yellow lower gauge pod overlays from bluebat
Yellow rear strut bar cover from blue bat

I am also going to get my seats leathered in black with yellow suede inserts, and the armrests on the door panels wrapped in suede, all from the local classic soft trim shop near me.

I estimate all of this including the seats will cost 1G or a tad over.
My question is...do you think this will be cool, or hideous? It will definatley be unique. If you think hideous, should I stick to just plain metal and black theme?

Opinions are welcome.

 

i think you should do it, sounds cool. i went with yellow under my hood as well with my LS. take a look at the link in my sig, this will kind of give you an idea of how it will look!

 

where did you get the yellow hoses? Ive looked all over the place for a set.

 

i'm not diggin that yellow and black theme. seems too bumblebee-ish for me.

 

Yo BumbleBee was Optimus Primes right hand, and he was the smallest of the Autobots. Lesson to learn: "Don't under estimate what appears to be different." I say go for your style, despite what anyone may think. Besides what's better than spanking someone who starts dissing your BumbleBee looking paint job?

 

Curious to know where you got the yellow hoses as well. Since I have an ultra yellow Z, those yellow hoses would match up nicely.

 

those are actually grounding wires, not hoses...got them from the great cat over a z-xtreme.com. you can get yellow Samco hoses, but they are VERY hard to find. most vendors don't stock many, if at all, because there isn't much call for them. if i find some, i will let you know!
