Custom Interior
Well I think I've settled on the exterior paint (Metallic purple, probably ford wild violet) but now I need to think about the interior. New carpet,
seats, headlining, doorcards etc going in and im throwing around ideas.
I was thinking either a very pale creamy white throughout with some sort of purple stripe through the seats and doorcards? Not sure about carpets
yet...
any thoughts? I was thinking the creamy white would look like a violet crumble - you know how the wrapper is purple, then when you bite the choc its
pale inside

I like the idea of cream on the inside and purple on the outside.
I was considering the the same thing but my colour is going to be a bit more of a Melot in colour.
My only wonder is it hard to keep clean.
I liked the way it worked in the Holden EFIJY concept car.
Any one got some pictures of their car with cream on the inside of there beetles?

off white will look great, especially with purple piping to match the paint, maybe even purple on teh seat backs/sides and half purple half white
doorcards, take a look and see if there are any pics of mandy's (splittychick) split screen's interior in her members rides post, i think that has
the colour scheme you are after.
