      carpet is black~ish. It was blue OEM and someone sprayed it black (sigh) haha. I can still see the blue but it's mostly black.

        My opinions:

        Opinion 1: Full Black

        Opinion 2: Red door cards, black door pulls and storage bin, red carpet, and black seats.
        *Also Black Floor Matts.

        Opinion 3: Red door cards, black door pulls and storage bin, black carpet, and Red Seats with black back covers.

        Cost wise opinion 1 is probably the best, but I think 2 or3 would look the coolest.

          hmm I have option 3 minus the seats. That would be mint.
          I'm definitely going to go black now though, I knew I wasn't the only one who thinks black would be sweet! And if I can find some red sport seats, then some magic might happen ;)

                      I was about to put a rob option but I don't know why that's always an option, so it felt weird.

                      And dying black seats red? impossibruuu

                        Lol I'm kidding. Coupes and verts can't be swapped :( Def don't dye them though. They are worth more as red panels than black

                          No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                            Is that really red though? That looks like brown. :-P

                            You can dye black seats red. It's going to take a few coats, but there's nothing special to it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uoJvdEBYIUA
