Well, as some of you are aware my car has undergone a stage 3 weight reduction (ie not much of the interior is left). Now I have the chance to pick bits from a mates car that has been recently totaled I have come to a hard decision...

Both cars have the tan interior. What I am debating is that wether or not that I would like to keep the poo brown parts of the car that way, or seeing as they will all be out in front of me, make them black.

I really don't know which way to go here! On one hand (IMHO) the tan interior is the classiest looking of all the stock colours. On the other, if I go for the brown parts in black, it's the closest that I'm going to get to owning a Ferrari in this lifetime.

Alas, I know not what to do :-( Any ideas?

Oh yeah, the bucket seats that will be eventually making their way into my car are black, so I'm leaning towards the later option, but I'm still undecided!

Leave it, you're right, the Ivory interior is easily the classiest Soarer interior:-) we have two also, both pearl/ivory.

I prefer to call our brown bits "milk chocolate brown"

Baby poo was the common consensus.

I have to admit it, the ivory interior is all CLASS. I've even considered replacing my black seats with ivory leather in the past. And you all know how much I LOVE black.

Hehehe, so you've been looking at the picture thread then? Yeah, tan/ivory/baby $hit, whatever you want to call it looks sweet. I;m just not to sure how it's going to go with black seats. Anyone got pics of a the afformentioned interior with black seats? Keeping the originals is out of the question as I just can't justify the $$$ needed to replace the switch gear (they're rooted), replace the plastic lower trim and re-trim the entire seat. For less than the cost of doing that to one seat I can have two nice bucket seats with harness glides!!!

My recollection of bay poo was that it was a yukky greenish orange with flecks in it:-) not all like the glorious Ivory interior- a breath of fresh air after years of boring grey.

I was referring to the brown or tan leather. The ivory is nice but only if kept clean.
