Retrim Colour Help/advise?

My dad is going to re-trim an interior for me for my black cabrio. I cannot decide what colour to go for… I am tempted by black leather and suede, however I am also thinking Dark Brown leather all over. (reason for this is i presume its not been done before)

anyone got any advise (what would you get it like?). Pics of retirms?

and this is the car…

For dark coloured cars (black or metallic Noisette Brown) tan leather looks really good. For example:

I reckon it's a goer! Guaranteed chick magnet too: a dark chocolate shell with a milk chocolate interior.  :wink:

Seriously, I think dark brown looks really good with black cars.

What about a nice dark red looks nice in black cars.

Oh also if your dads doing the re-trim what would he charge for leather in a cabriolet as i have 1 almost ready for re-trim

ye my mums just suggested that… burgendy

as to how much he would charge hes never done a whole interior, so doesnt know on time and costs fully but when hes done mine (if your still wanting it doing) i will let you know a price.

Yeh no probs mate just let me know. I think red suits the inside of a black car.  :mrgreen:

o and you will be able to see how good his work is from mine as well.

True mate plus i am not too far from you guys. And i know white/cream looks good in black cars but a pain to keep clean

I have now bought the leather…Dark Red/Burgendy… it is very nice and the retrim is now underway. Will add some pics of the leather and the start of whats been done so far tonight!

I am rather excited now! :-)

looking forward to seeing the finnished artical and those all important prices. Good choice of colour mate should look good

new post in projects… will be updated with progress…
