Question Frost Interior??? Anybody???

So i live in Houston, which is a pretty damn big city, so i see quite a bit of Zs. There is something i have began to notice, though: Almost all who own a Silverstone Z, like mine, have the all black interior. Mine is like the only Z ive seen with Frost interior, with the exception of some white Zs.

So i was just curious, how many many of you have the Frost?? What color paint job do you have it on?? Additionally, how many of you have a Silverstone with the black interior??

I dunno, i love the frost. It gives the car a more expensive look IMO, and looks great with the SS.

i have front in my white (PPW) and love it. but i hated the seats..got to dirty and made me mad...

i just recently switched to black 06 cloth and love the black/frost combination of the interior....im always getting complements on it now...versus before.

** one of the only pics i got, need to take a daytime one...sorry for the dirty carpet.

mine did........i would clean it constantly....

i blame it on the drift events.....so much junk would fly and fine tire dust and junk was all over the place......even with the windows up....just openening and closing doors..etc...

wouldnt suprise me if it was. i dont see why it would be diff from the black leather...

but when looking in the cracks it does look unusally thin. Mine still look great, though, but i have to clean them ALL THE TIME.

Good idea w the black seats, though, i wonder how black leather would look? It would match the carpet/mats and look like one black streak from pedals to headrest if you know what i mean...

I think that would look pretty cool.

Silverstone with black interior here. It's the sex... especially after I detail the interior. (I drove my last two cars with an interior similar to frost, so I find it a bit dull)

I live just outside Houston btw.

Blue roadster with frost leather interior. I love it. It stays clean, but it's no longer my DD, and I've always been a bit overboard (perfectionist) with it.

I think the frost looks much better than the black. I had black cloth in my silverstone coupe 2005 base.

Brickyard with frost. I feel like I am in a spotlight inside it since I am used to the black. Don't like it. But atleast now it matches the headliner.

i love the paint matched dash with the frost interior, it doesn't look as good with a black interior, IMO

Thanks! The company that did the interior matched the paint perfectly. I have been very happy with the end results.

I've got the Daytona Blue Roadster with the Frost interior. Best combination IMHO. Don't really have too much problem with it getting dirty. I do clean it and put leather protectant on it, but I also have the top down 90% of the time.

Daytona/Frost here, too. No problems with dirt. Just use leather cleaner every now and then.

For some odd reason I cannot stand frost/tan type interiors. I love black interior.
