Painted the aluimnum trim inside the door.
I was always on the fence about the brushed aluminum door trim inside the door and the matching piece on where the B pilar would be (if the car had one).
On one hand, I thought it looked sporty and it was definitely eye catching when you opened the door.
On the other hand, I thought the B-pilar trim piece looked really out of place.
I had my trim painted body color. Thoughts?

It probably looks good on a Black car. I would do the screws in Black as well. I think it will flow better. I'm doing mine in Carbon and will be doing the screws in Black.
. Or leaving it parked that way either

I agree black screws are probably now required to keep my ride looking clean.
Carbon Fiber trim pieces will look awesome on your car.
...and for the record, I only open my doors while driving when I want to stop.
