Your paint choice is going to project very similar to the top half of this cruiser



Obviously dependant on amount and depth of pearl added to base coat.

Dependant on resources 'are you you looking to save on repainting door jams, inner boot lid and internals etc', I'd have a look at going a nice metallic silver 'as it will still pop for a cheaper price, I've also found that with some of these more interesting paint types chosen the effects wear off in your own eyes pretty quickly', and saving yourself the shitstorm of trying to match a car with such a contrast.

Depends on what you're trying to achieve, what resources you have available to you and how much you want to spend.

There is of course the forum favourite Gun Metal Grey

Take it modification by modification mate, have a search on site for trimmers used 'I'm assuming by custom roof and floors you mean roof lining for the interior and carpets?.

As far as STi seats its a matter of what type of STi seats you're referring to and whether your existing seat rails will accommodate them, or whether you'll need to source after market generic options or not.

Best advice to be given about the interior would be to have it clear in your mind what material/colour scheme/design you want, then start fishing the yellow pages.

Any gc8 sti or Gd sti seats will bolt straight in.

note that the gd seat rails are higher than the gc's, so if you are tall go for GC sti ones.
