Suggestions on color to wrap interior trim in

Whats up all, I'm trying to get some ideas on what color to make the silver interior trim.I have the red interior package so I don't want to overdo either black or red. I know this is mostly personal preference but would like to see some other ideas out there.

Also I plan to do the exterior chrome trim, My car is Malbec black what is a good color wrap to go with in your opinions
Thank you

Exterior I'd just go gloss black to match your door pillars (that is an adhesive vinyl sticker btw). As far as interior, I went a slightly darker machined steel vinyl but I want to go w/ a machined black vinyl next time, the few that I have seen w/ that choice look real good IMO.

I was thinking of going with this ( https://www.metrorestyling.com/3M-10...ss1080g201.htm ) for interior but I'm not sure it'll look that good

Also that definitely makes sense with the exterior

you'd have to paint them i believe because i searched all over for malbec black vinyl wrap and got nothing except a company that you send in your color and they match it but its an extra 60-100$ i just don't see that worth it for just doing trim

That's the color scheme I'm dealing with here idk I'm probably putting too much thought into this but I want to go dark as possible but don't want it to be overboard
And this is the reason I want to wrap it also hahaha idk what to do about that armrest

Well I don't understand the risk, they are in need of a paint job instead of wrap anyway. You can never go wrong with a piano black finish, but paint matching with the malbec would be a very nice touch. Did you ever decide on what to go with? and have you been quoted any prices?

you are right my car in general needs a few paint repairs but thats something I'm gonna do after all the snow and salt is off the roads (New York winter was harsh) plus I'm not sure of making them the same paint because they are more of an accent on the car hmm I'll do one door and post pics when it gets warmer here and let you judge
