Redoing the interior -- what do you think?

I'm going to make some changes to the interior on my rig. I'm going to go with black dash, door panels, and quarter panels, along with black Corbeau Baja RS seats and belts, black carpet, and a black family cage. I want the dash to maintain the classic look (knobs, gauge cluster), but want to make the rest of the interior look and feel more modern.

Here is where I would like your input:

When it comes to the door panels, I'm thinking about the black fiberglass panels from Bronco Hut:

with black billet window crank and knob:

and black door latch:

My concern is that the panel, window crank, and door latch may all have different sheens and textures, so it could look weird. Thoughts? The alternative would be going with chrome cranks and door latch.

Can you paint the dash, door panels and quarter panels the same color, or have them all powdercoated so they match?

It would drive me nuts if I went to all that trouble and they didn't match properly.

My vote would be black panels but chrome cranks and latches. Should look good and accomplish your goal.

Well I like the plan. For me, I like a little bit of contrast and would probably go with a billet aluminum window crank with the black knob.

I would even consider getting the speaker pods that they sell. They look really nice for something like $199 for the set. However, if you don't wanna add holes to the post and door then the other would be nice as well.

Whatever you do im sure it will look great. Can't wait to see what you go with! ;D
