    Really happy with how the colour has turned out especially as it's Churchill red which only cost £45 for 5 litres compared with £195 for volvo red. Looks a better red when side by side.

    Just think the beige gives the car a fresher and brighter look and feel.

    I think if you added panels or hints (like you did with the steering wheel and gear knob) with red piping then it would not be too dark.

    That actually looks really good. Might have to get the carpets now then. Looks about right. Hated the cream dash and console

    You've done a great job, I'm liking that steering wheel. As has already been commented on I think you need the darker carpets.

    The steering wheel is loads better mate. It's thinker too now which gives it a more sporty feel.

    Thanks guys, value all ur advice and opinions which is why I've posted to get a feel what u all think and what improvements I could do. The seat colour being one but I'm fighting myself over it as when I sit in the car the beige does look really nice and brightens up the interior. Mate has the dark interior and the car just seems dull and colourless. If I had a red Ferrari I'd have the cream interior I'm thinking lol
