Two tone interior
So I have a 2004 Acura TL with parchment interior and my seats must go! I was thinking about just changing the seats to black. How do you think that will go? The dash is half black half parchment so the carpets would still match the dash. Opinions welcomed!

^Agreed.
If I remember correctly, there was a 3G TL for sale with Parchment interior with Ebony seats and it didn't look all that bad. I'm not sure that I would do it, but that's just my

Plus it'd be much cheaper and your car would look awesome with new carpets! Plus you could finish it off with a custom alcantara headliner!
But to get the exact above look, you would need to dye the lower plastics on the door panels, dye the trim pieces along the center console/lower dash (or you could buy them) and as well the seatbelt pillars.

not really, the leather in the doors can remain parchment, and the lower panels can be dyed according to a shop near me.

Check this link to see the black seats on black carpet with the parchment interior. I believe he installed the black carpet first, then the seats. I have the parchment int. as well, and like the contrast of the all weather mats (I have), and have thought about installing the black carpet. Hope this helps.....

Yeah the older 04-06 gauges looks pretty old school compared to the newer interior 07-08 gauges.
Back on subject I personally think parchment interior would not look good with black seats. I used to have parchment interior on my previous TL which was an 07 NBP with parchment. Im trying to picture it with black seats and I think it would look pretty goofy. I know you may be trying to change things up a little but I would personally just get new OEM seat covers for yours and keep it as is.

If I had to do it all over, I'd go for a custom red/amber/orange leather variant. Would look awesome in a WDP but you'd have to do the center armrest as well and could get away with leaving the doors original. I wish the TL-S came in that umber leather interior.

there is a thread of someone who has Type S with Taupe interior but he has the outside seat Ebony color and the middle insert is Taupe. It look much better than Ebony/silver imo.
