Two-tone seats?

Hey guys, im getting my seats all redone sometimes in the near future, my parents had wanted to get them redone before they gave me the car, but they never got around to it... Any recommendations on what would go nicely with my car? Inza Red '97. I was gonna keep it black, but i'm thinkin about a two-tone, i just cant decide what other color to do (leaning towards a grey, but im also thinkin a dark red to match the exterior).

Heres a link to my photobucket if you wanna get some ideas of what it all looks like currently...

The biggest factor in getting it done now is because a friend of mine got paint on the seats... Im a senior in hs, and we're allowed to buy and paint "Senior Spots" well, one of my friends wanted to drive my car afterwards, i checked her hands, he feet. But i forgot to check her ass... anyways... on a side note... anyone got any ideas on how to remove oil based paint from leather seats? haha

Keep it the color it is, but get Red inserts in the center of the seats, and maybe a few peices on the sides.

yeaaa....I'd like to do this too...but, Black CL, black OEM leather and OEM woodgrain + wood dash kit...I dont think something like silver inserts would look that great...i donno...black, wood, and a little silver...i donno...

But i do agree...black with red inserts would be nice. Just please dont get like that flaming bright orange red color...I'd get something a little darker shade of red....or better yet, get red suede....lol...either that or Louis Vatton or Gucci print..hehe

Look at my seats... U probably could have an idea now? Custom interior.







I did them dis color beacuase it matched the whole interior including the dash and im putting black n grey gucci on side panels and pillars as soon as the fabric comes from back order, Also guys for the woodgrain pieces should i cover them with gucci fabric or get them in carbon fiber?. YES i kno my steering wheel is ugly planning on fixing that two on a two tone steering wheels.

i put custom acura symbols, black carpet and two tone color seats..

I got it for 930$ hooked up, with out no hook up should run around 1,200$....
