Default Color scheme? Opinions and ideas

Hey everybody, so to start off Ive had my 05 6i since about august and Have done many mods since then. My sig has what i can fit. Well i started with a blue and black theme since my 6 is Dark gray (not sure the actual color name). Do you think i should continue with that theme or change to a theme where I color match my exterior car color? Im still under warranty also so can only really do cosmetic mods so doing those until warranty expires.So throw me some opinions and ideas please. Thanks everybody http://www.cardomain.com/ride/399759...-mazda-mazda6/

I like the black and blue. How about a blue pins stripe? Or a small blue graphic item on the c-pillar?
Photoshop it first.

Love those colored gauges. Your Link above first pic is a dead end.
I have no idea what you want to color. The exterior paint is in great shape.

Yes Link is fixed, mainly older photos as you have removed door side moulding and changed the front upper grille.
Have you thought about doing the "Evil M" at the back!
Some people do a carbon fiber decal on the inside centre console. I did upper end with some OK stuff but didn't remove the console. It works better when you remove it and do around lower part as well.
it's available in different colors: Carbon Fiber Film | Dedicated To Selling 3M Carbon Fiber DI-NOC Vinyl

Does the decal last though? I wouldn't mind doing it but don't want it coming off in like a month or so. I plan on the evil M. Just need to get around to doing it.

There's lots of info on that link. That is premium stuff. Never heard of any body not happy with it.

3M™ DI-NOC™ can be used both indoors and outdoors. The material has been tested to last about 3-4 years outdoors and 12 years indoors.

Ill most likely do this then. What do you think will be the best color for my car? Gloss black, black or graphite.

The graphite is more subtle and the black is more bold. Depends on your likes.
