    How many cloth interior colors were there?

    I'm considering ditching my tan interior components (carpets, door panels, rear shelf, etc) and black leather sport seats in favor of going with a cloth sport interior. I'm not really a fan of the leather stuff anymore, it's too hot in the summer, and just uncomfortable to me most of the time. As far as seats go, I'm either going to get cloth sports, or possibly a set of the VW GTi Recaros, but I want to know first what different colors of cloth sport interiors there were. I'd kind of like to go with one of the grey ones, it would go well with the black, and I want to keep the black door pulls and map pockets I have. I tried to search, but didn't come up with very much. Could you guys with cloth interiors post up a few pics and show me what you've got? Thanks!

    I can get a really cool houndstooth in black and white. OEM gray BMW cloths with patterns as well, also this cloth but in grey diagonals.

        I made the front seats kit for a customer and he and his son installed them in his 91is. If I get a chance I will take some pics of the OEM cloths I can still get in the grays.

          Is the cloth above similar to the stuff in E28's?

          I'm looking for some cloth in either Pearl Beige or Nutria (unsure of which one because of the shade). Nutria is usually the darker of the beiges, correct?

          Sorry for the thread jack Josh, just looking for some help from Kevin.

          Thanks,

            Yeah should be the same cloth. Natur is the one shown pearl is a very light tan/yellow color. I have done the same kit in pearl, so it is available.

              So this interior would be Pearl Beige?
