feedback on new seat cover colors

I recently upgraded the vinyl seats to cloth in my 05 F150 XL, regular cab. Originally, I was only able to get replacements for the driver's and passenger's side seats, not the center seat. I bought these from Chris Adams. They were in very good shape and cleaned up nicely. These covers are light flint grey in color.

I then bought a center seat with covers from Gobra. I liked his center seat better because his had the cup holders and storage built in where my vinyl covered one did not. The cover on his center seat was dark flint grey.

I installed it even though it was not the same grey as the other two seats. I thought it might look good with the contrasting grey colors in my dash.

What do you think of the two colors together?

I like it. I don't think I would have noticed if you hadn't said anything. Looks great!

IT doesn't look bad considering it matches like one of 8562349785609237416 shades of gray and black that can be found on some models.

Thanks for your comment. This truck had a lot to work with as it had almost nothing on it new. I have had a blast with it. My wife is tickled to see me pissing our money away somewhere other than the bar. You guys may have contributed to the salvation of my marriage. Thanks for all the information and the new feeding of my financial irresponsibility. I think I am scheduled to appear on Dr. Phil the week after next.
