I think what your after is a bit more of the cinnamon color. I knew the tobacco was brownish, and that's what I was going for ... Im just amazed how this stuff works

Ok I have been tracking this thread as well as read the link to e46fanatics and conclude that this colorbond stuff is good. I have an all gray (dove gray?) interior with the dash being black as well as the shift boot. My trim silver also to match the exterior paint. The whole scheme to me is rather boring and too monochrome. I have two choices in mind:

First option:

Paint the front and back seats black. Then later paint part of the door cards black also to have a two-tone look. The condition of my seats are not bad but the drivers bolster is getting cracked. I think painting the seats is a good idea because it will hide some of the cracks at least.

Second option:

This will be more bold but not sure if it will look "cheesy". Instead of painting seats black, cinnamon color instead. Same with the door cards in two-tone. The shift boot as well will be cinnamon.

I wish I can photoshop this to see how it will look. What do you guys think?

Here is my interior:

Cinnamon would look off. Do 2-tone black and gray.
When did you have M-par wheels? I thought you traded your style42 for style19?

I profited a little from the 19's and lets just say I got some staggered Pirelli's for free. I didnt want to get Mpars but at the moment they are the only ones I can afford where I can have 9.5 inch wide rear wheels.

Did you do the head liners and pillars or did you leave them stock beige?

I was going to dye them, but didn't like the feel of the fabric painted... was a bit rough.. so found a local partout, and did my pillars and headliner grey.
