      I don't know I love the colors, I got inspired way back in 99 by my cousin's Grand Am he had the 2 toned red/gray interior and it was sick...so I was like when I get a cool ride I want to customize it.

                Did anyone see that I rearranged the buttons on the dash? The four ways, the defrost, and the empty button.

                  i noticed that, while i was noting how you actually took the time to paint AROUND the buttons.

                  WAY too much neon green in my opinion, but to be honest, i cant say that its poorly done. its weird to see a "show car" interior in a stock looking outside (usually they are done the other way around), but youve got a good balance between green/black and i can imagine you did that first, considering its what YOU see most often, as the driver. everything is cleanly done though, but it looks like your painted panels could use some touchups what kind of paint did you use? while rare, you CAN find black OEM interior pieces. also some types of paints hold up better than others.

                  id like to see this car in a couple more years, id imagine it wouldnt be looking too bad. i kinda like the photoshop you did. the car exterior looks VERY clean as it is though.

                  you should paint the H on the steering wheel green. or maybe just the background area around the H, within the rectangle.

                          Thanks for all the comments. The photoshop pic is just one idea of a paint scheme for the exterior. A drop just isn't feasible for the area I live in, but maybe when I get down to FL I will change things up. I really hope to have this car 100% done within 3yrs. The green paint is duplicolor engine enamel, which bonded very well and hasn't given me any problems. Then most of the black is an expensive Corvette interior paint, which doesn't bond very well at all the the plastics in a Honda. I am going to have to do a lot of touch ups before I show it off. I was actually thinking about fiberglassing everything... 100% custom interior.
