so...you'r going in a completely different direction than the exterior of the car? i dont think those colors mesh well with your car at all. so even if the interior comes out great on its own, i cant really see it looking good as a whole.

Hmmm... Black and White, why couldn't it be easy.

I'm not too sure about the saddle color melding with white?
You should have a pinstripe dividing the black and white on the body. I always try to think "Theme" so maybe you could tie it into the piping color then black seats with grey inserts and white embroidery on the headrests.

Nothing against being different, keep in mind what get's done a lot is done for a reason.

^his car isnt black on top, its like a dark grey. and there is a red pinstripe seperating the colors.

spikester- not sure how far into this you are, but what about doing a red leather/vinyl as the main color (a red close to the color of the pinstripe), with maybe white or dark grey accents. or just flip the colors you have chosen.

and what DriftR said is true- "what get's done a lot is done for a reason."
