Oppinion wanted on wood

Hey guys so I have cinnamon brown interior with anthracite wood. I also have piano black wood on the way. Now im considering getting the hexagon trim. What are your thoughts on which trim will look best?


Thanks!!!

Piano black looks classy with cinnamon combo and hexagon looks modern. Just my 2 cents...

There's no "right" answer. Color and trim combinations are based on individual tastes. I personally have Cinnamon + Dark Burl.

Blech, puke, barf (imo)! Never been a fan of the hexagon trim but it is highly durable (unless you dent it). Piano black is badass but you hafta be careful how you treat it as I've heard that it may show scratches / swirls if you dry wipe it. Maybe 'Meguires Quick Detailer' or summin like it would keep it in good shape.

I have cinnamon and black anthracite, I love the color combo....I attached two photos below.

This photo makes the cinnamon look more red/orange but the black anthracite is nice. I would also go for the piano black. The hexagon just does not appeal to me but I can appreciate it.

Beautiful shots! I have the same interior trim, I think they look nice from far, but when you look closely, it's got swirls all over the place

I wish I had an option to get the cinnamon interior, looks so much better than black ones.
