Opinions needed

[DoneRightBimmer]

Hello everyone,

Im redoing my 1993 325i vert seats soon and im in need some opinions. The car is Calypso red and came with tan interior originally but ive already switched out the interior panels for black ones. Next step is to get the seat redone Im obviously thinking black for the seats but a set or red/cardinal front and rear seats came up for sale in good conditon and i love the red seats in every other color e30, but i fear the Red seats matched with the red exterior is to much for the eye and will take away from the clean look im going for. Obviously i cant find any pics of this combination but im wondering what you all think of this color combo.

Thanks for your input.

They'll clash and look bad, go with black.

Once you go black you never go back.

Cardinal is no where close to Calypso. Do yeah it will look odd. Now maybe a darker rd to match the Calypso will look good.

+1
but i'm bias against red interior.
only car I've seen it in that i was okay with was a spyker C8 lol.

Cardinal its a sex color, but it will look bad in a calypso car.

Cardinal is a red that looks faded by the sun. Cherry and Crimson is a much better red if you're looking for a e30 red int.

do black or tan. black will look clean, tan will look classic. depends on your rims too though. but regardless no cardinal interior.

thanks all for talking me out of it. Ill stick with black like planned.

I agree that the cardinal would not look good on a car that is calypso on the exterior.

I like this idea

Love red interior but not in any type of red car, go black. Another option is a crazy modena color if possible, that'd be sexy as hell on calypso.
