I am planning on doing some major remodeling of my interior this month. I have a red Lightning and need to know what you guys think would look better. I am getting all the hard plastic in the interior painted titanium and all the black is going to be covered with carbon fiber. I am replacing the seats with racing seats. I prefer the Corbeau Carrera (www.corbeau.com) racing seats for the interior but I am not sure which color I want. Since the exterior body is red, I kinda want to go with the red seats to match (and I think it will look more custom) and have the wear pads (black accents on the seat) painted titanium. If I get the red seats, I am also going to get the leather door panels (currently black) stained red to match and maby a few other small red accents in the interior. I am not sure how the red would match with the gray and black (carbonfiber).

Would this look good or should I go with the black Corbeau's with the titanium painted accents? Please give me feedback so I don't do this and get ragged on!!!! Any feedback is appreciated wether it is good or bad. Thanks.

 

Wow, sounds like a lot of work. I notice most of the custom interiors don't seem to get too radical with the colors. The red sounds good as long as it is not an overpowering or bright red. Just me personally, I like the darkers colors. But all that really matters is what you like the best.

Here is a link of the 4 available colors.

I would love to do that to my interior. Those red seats would look sweet in your ride. I do not think it would be too much, and I also think the colors would look good together.

 

You and I spoke a week ago about similar Ideal. I too was interested in doing some intereior work, preferably changing the black plastic dash pieces to red. I think those seats would look cool with your red/blach sheme. I'm going with the okoles myself because I love the oem seat......mmmmm. I did some photo editing (very low quality) and i thought the red grey looked good. Just my opinion...

 

Tough crowd!!! With all the people that have read the thread and not replied, I guess we are all neutral as to how it looks??? Now I'm really confused to how it would look!!!!

 

I say go with the black seats. I never liked it when the interior colors matched exterior paint because then its just too much, you need some contrast between the interior and exterior.
