Default Painting the Seats?

I'll admit that I didnt even know about the two-color seats when I bought the S. So I was wondering, are there any special kinds of leather/fabric paints that i can use to paint the center seat cushions to get that dual-colored look?

Are you crazy?

Dude just trade or buy some on Ebay. I would not try to attempt a project like that even if I were Picasso. Plus you will KILL your resale.

Good luck.

Yep, just mask them off and use spray paint.

leatherseats.com has a group by going on for replacement leather. You can do two tone or suede or whatever you like. Check out the vendor section.

Good idea, I might just be able to get replacement seats. Actually I wanted the red/black seats - right now I have solid black.
