Default center console

I am thinking about painting my double d mods center console my car is QS, with the mod red interior, but I am unsure if I should paint it torch red or QS to match the exterior of the car any thoughts on your guys end?

I think I would go with the QS color. That would tie in the exterior to the interior and you would still have a nice color breakup with the mod red stuff.

I also vote brushed aluminum or black. I like the brighter colors, however with the HVAC being a dark gray, some of the brighter colors are too much of a contrast IMO.

I would vote silver. I wouldn't want all that red staring me in the face while driving.
