Cool Wrapping Interior Trim with SUEDE

Im thinking of wrapping the interior (ugly silver) trim with suede and I would like your opinions?

Good/bad/ugly idea?
What color?
Anything else?

I know it will be challenging but IMO it will look pretty awesome! especially the part around the radio!

BTW i have a 2007 G35x OB with black interior

I personally wouldnt do that on trim pieces. Id rather paint them or wrap them in something. Too much seude reminds me of my oldsmobile cutlass

Personally, I like the silver trim on mine, but in for pics. Make sure you use some strong adhesive for the headliner if you do it. Don't want that coming loose and flapping in the wind.
