If you were gonna redo/paint your entire interior gray how would you do it?

Im almost to the point in my build where I need to knock out the interior. Its a bit of a hodge podge of parts but I need to use what I have and maybe go back and change things as I see fit.

The cab is an 87 that never had trim or headliner.

I have
NOS 81-87 dash pad that needs paint
NOS 77-80 base door panels that need paint
NOS armrest that will need paint
NOS sunvisors that will need paint
NOS Silverado style cluster bezels and a/c trim

I picked up a full set of interior pillar and headliner trim that needs cleaned and painted. Im semi hesitant as the cab doesn't have any holes for any of that stuff. Maybe I should leave the truck without the trim or headliner.

I also have a seat that is totally the wrong color but has a nice cover on it. Im consider painting it with the SEM paint Im using on the rest of the panels. If the seat doesn't turn out well Ill have to recover it anyway. Eventually Id like to replace it with a newer seat.

Im trying to decide on color schemes.

Would you try and match the carpet, door trims, dash, piller, headliner, trim & seat belts all the same color?

I have to buy the carpet, headliner, seat belts yet so Im trying to decide how to match the stuff together along with picking out the SEM colors.

Im thinking since the seat is velour and vinyl I could choose a light gray and a medium gray and maybe mix up some of the different pieces.

Any thoughts?

the door panel picture is just for reference of the style. I prefer not to use any black on the inside.
