If you look at 503 green long enough you realize its got a little grey to it. The inside of my cab is sprayed satin so its not shinny on my eyes while driving. So I figured even though it's not an original color I'd use a light grey. The door panels are covered in a vinyl material I found at Hobby lobby. Most everything else is sprayed with SEM. The SEM works good on everything but the armrests. Because I use them to close the door, the SEM keeps cracking. Maybe I didn't prep them right for the SEM paint,,but I'm pretty sure I did. I think that SEM paint just can't take a lot of abuse. The color combo is a little different but I like it.
