Everything else is red & black... The seats just JUMP out now...
In person the black plastic around the seats (roll hoops, glovebox) and the carpet provide the black to set off the seats.

Ahh... I see... Or rather, I don't see..

I am sort of hoping that JPM will maybe someday come up with a set of seat covers... Maybe a kit that you can install yourself.

I have the oh-so wonderful all blue Suzy interior ( ) that I am really interested in doing something about... Just not sure what, though... I am thinking light grey (almost silver) suede accents of some sort.

I REALLY like the JPM boot and console cover... I'll most likely start there and see what else I can cook up...

Have you seen the black/blue interior swaps some people have done?

The blue interior looks GREAT on Silverstone/Sebring. Find someone to swap with, then customize from there.

I honestly wanted something more unique, though. Not a fan of black interior bits either... Show too much dirt/dust...
Mabey on the plastics, but if you did a swap of just the seats and door panel inserts and mabey the center console you would have black leather, and blue plastics. It looks GREAT, I have seen other people do swaps before.

Then you don't have to worry about trying to match the blue leather.

That is actually what I was thinking... BUT... Grey suede instead of black leather.

All of the plastics would stay. Too hard/expensive to replace. But the fabric parts could (reasonably) be changed out.

I am totally drooling over the JPM door inserts. Especially since he now carries grey alcantra (sp?).
