Well, my interior is black, but my car has metallic silver stripes. I was willing to go with a silver or a grey.

You can get metallic cording.. I saw it online somewhere, but I guarantee you aren't going to like it... Looks too hoaky and "blingy". Your best bet is to go with a storm gray.. a color you most likely will only get by finding a dye and dying afew packages of the white piping. But be sure that when you dye, do them each individually as to avoid light and dark spots. The only other option is to do what I did, buy edging and cording and make it yourself.. To bad you don't live close to me, I could have done it for you.

I found silver/grey and it has a bonus....It's reflective.........

There you go! Didn't see any gray at Jo-Anns.. Let me know of you like the orange piping. It looked too much like that rusty orange to me and wasn't "vibrant" enough. And post some pics when you get it in.. I'd like to see it.

I didn't do the bottom of the dash piece cause i was going for that "ABL" look. But if I decide to put some on the bottom, it'll be a quick and easy install. The dash piece is by far the easiest.

not sure of the thickness of the 'tail' but there is such a thing as vinyl piping - http://veada.com/product/11-Marine-V...pholstery.html

though that EL wire in the piping is quite interesting...
