I haven't decided yet.
Maybe get leather for the armrest pads to tie it together.
I'm actually getting my panels painted black for my MINI.
The pictures you see are the wife's car.
I just did the cup holder rings and the cup holder on the tube. I did scratch the paint a bit reinstalling the metal, but I really didn't spend much time on the cup holder plastic.

I only sanded the panels to break that glossy finish and didn't primer, think that the paint was going to stick fine.
That just cost me multiple coats. I'd spray two layers or twice, then sand the spots and kept repeating the process. I would really say that the paint did a lot of the work to. It stuck good.
I will be doing the steering wheel silver parts this weekend, and I would just say prep the surface by priming and then wetsand and dry with alcohol before respraying.
I hope this helps!

I actually have a 6 speed in my mini !
I could actually get the leather and cover up the gear indicator! That would really mess up a thief!!
I'll post my interior soon, I had a professional paint them glossy jet black, similar to the piano black, and they look great!!! Down tubes and the steering wheel trim pieces, too.
My contact said he could do others, if anyone wants to PM me.
I thought I did a good job on the wife's until I saw these.
