Well, I decided to wash and detail the interior so I pulled all the AC Vents out and soaked them in water with a little Simple Green mixed in. To make a long story short, I pulled them out, dried them, and for some reason, they are grey instead of black. My dad mentioned that I ought to paint them a different color to contrast the complete black interior, and I thought, "Hey, what about white?" I have "reverse indiglo gauges" and will soon have the "reverse indiglo HVAC and Gear Selector" overlays. But I just can't decide whether I like it or not.

I think ya'll are right, I went out with a white piece of paper, and compared. It would definitely look tacky.

Well, I decided to leave as is right now, they're a REALLY dark shade of grey, and so are my seats so they match without being too much of a standout, or tacky. Thanks for all the replies an opinions, I'm always interested in what the members here have to say.
