interior ideas

So, i am thinking about redoing the stock interior on my FD. Its montego blue and has the 2-tone black on white interior with white leather seats. I was wondering if anyone had or seen any ideas of what to do with the interior?

I would do all black get the door panels and carpet and dash from an r1. Then you could choose what type of seats you want. Sparco in my opinion. Or R1 its up to you.

Is tan the new white?

That's an expensive endeavour you're taking on.....door panels can get pricey. I've seen people on here paint the bins and quarter panels in the back to cut costs.

I don't mind my black and tan interior. My drink of choice too!

Good luck. Here's what a quick google came up with on the carpet:

its almost like an off white. im not sure if that is how it comes from factory, but thats what they are. you can tell they are lighter than the door panels though.

yeah man as long as you get a molded carpet it should be really easy to replace just remember to use new insulation.
