    honestly I wouldnt bother painting an interior I have never seen one that looks any good. Over time it will scratch, flake etc and look crap. Look around for a secondhand interior the right colour if your on a budget, if you pick up a wreak with a good interior for 300-500 sell off what you can off it send the shell to scrap the interior might be free or cost you about $100.

    The VK/VL grey looked modern and suits alot of exterior colours, Also the buckskin, sandlewood etc suits alot of exterior colors also, the VK cerulean may suit the green but i think the other colours would be better suited.

    I wanted to trim my VK in alight buckskin looking leather but the work in color coding all kinds of small things I kept mine the original cerulean.


    cheers

    if you want a particular vinyl paint colour that isn't available in a can, take a sample of the colour you want to an automotive paint place (like Harts automotive paint supplies), and they will mix up some vinyl paint to match.

    I had to get the dark claret colour mixed up so that I could spray the door pods to match the SS interior colour
