black seats and white door panels?

Guys

Ive got an Ochre 71 truck with white interior and seats.

Ive already found some seats from a 2011 Silverado that im putting in and they are black.

Ive got brand new black carpet

Only thing thats gonna be white is the door panels and arm rests.

Think that will look weird? Should i paint the panels black and buy black armrests?

Any pics of white/black interiors would be great!

thanks!

Re: black seats and white door panels?

I like the white, but in your case painting them black probably makes sense.

You can paint the arm rests along with the door panels. SEM makes a primer and paint specifically for plastic. You should be able to find it at about any parts store.

Might look good, but instead of painting over the white panels, maybe someone on this site will do a swap or trade with you.

I'm kinda like you, jks, I'm thinking Checkered Flag for you on the black & white... But I like it.
