i'm restoring my whole interior and i'm about done. as you can see i'm using doner red door handles from my old 90' stang. i want it to be a lil different from every other mustang out there so i ordered some matching speaker grills. these grills are genuine ford from the same year and same color as my door handles. here is the problem, they are basicly new and came sealed in plastic and in a box so they aren't faded like my handles. anybody have ideas on how to tone down the color of the grills to match?...PB View attachment 497138

It might be me, but your question seems a bit cluttered. It's not making any sense. If all your asking is help choosing colors, just go blk/red or all black.

Ultraviolet light is what fades the interior. You can stick your parts under some UV lights for a couple of days to get the same effect.
