    I liked the idea before I did it but now it seems to be too bright. What do you all think? I can take harsh criticisms.

    Seems awfully "loud" but whatever floats your boat. I'd personally get tired of it fast.

    I would either keep the gauge dash rings with the shifter/bottom console trim painted and restore the rest, or keep the steering wheel and the shifter/bottom console trim painted and restore the rest. I like little accents of color for interior, but right now, it looks a little much IMO.

    I actually had to do a double take because I thought it was a Tacoma. Kind of weird how similar the interiors are.

    I think the orange on the white is different, but not bad. With that said, I like the engine cover, and the gauge rings. The rest is ok. Not a fan of the color on the steering wheel though.

    Like it, but the cluster bezels are too much.

    They would work if the truck was the same color, but not on the white body.

    Steering wheel looks half-done. If you don't have the ability to color the buttons on the upper spokes, leave it all silver.

    The orange doesn't work off anything else so it doesn't make sense to me. A charcoal or carbon fiber would be cool with that color scheme.

    Let me know if you want anything like this. Bright colors need to be done tastefully. They can get away from people quickly. If I was you I would go with something like this:

    Thanks , I don't like carbon fiber look alike. I am the person that if I want carbon fiber products, I want the real thing. Just my preference. :D

    I like the look except I feel that the upper center console (around the radio & A/C controls) should have been left the stock color. If you wanted more color, could could find a way to paint your tweeter rings on the doors the same way some of us do with our Tacomas. I also agree with Rich91710 that the steering wheel look incomplete. try to find a way to repaint all 4 spokes but i would leave the buttons silver.

    Except the Raptor interior looks refined and tasteful. Personally I don't like the orange but I can't see a complete picture of what the car looks like on the outside. Maybe you have chrome 22s with orange spokes and other orange accents on the exterior. I think the orange cluster rings and the steering wheel throw it out of balance though.

    There is a million different things to do with stuff like this. It doesn't have to be carbon.

    Not too bad. I like it but the radio/ac panel and steering is a bit much. Less really is more.

    honestly its what you like that counts bud. personally i see no issues with my tacoma stock dash and see no reason to change it. i'm sure the dodge's dash wouldn't bug me either tho.

    Thanks Rich, I tried to get the controls off without breaking them since they are wired to the car controls and settings. I ordered some cool vanilla paint to match the exterior. :thumbsup:
