What Colour Leather To Get?

[SLY333]

Hey guys im looking for some input as to what colour leather i should get in my White R33 Series 2 skyline, i dont want black to be honest as it is quite plain and boring but what colour leather would go well with my white skyline? also if anyone has any photos of their leather interiors please post them on this thread so i can have a look, the reason as to why im going leather is i know a trimmer and his going to re trim all my interior as i have another complete standard interior for my car

Thanks guys

Red looks good with white but I like black. Or you could do a two tone to break the black up a bit.

I know you said no black but black with carbon inserts

whatever you do stay away frombrown/beige/tan/cream unless you want your car to look like a mochachino

colours could work like red blue inserts with black but its kinda boring and been done to death..

personally Id be going for something a little different like this steel kind of colour just for the seat inserts and door trims, Then I would use this colour pewter for the rest of the seat surrounds cause it should match nicely with the standard dash and door plastic colours..then if you wanted to paint the dash surround you could paint it in tungsten which is the colour of the standard cam covers i think..it actually looks really nice when its clean. after that if you just clean your engine up really nice I think the whole car would match and tie together nicely..

some good ideas poping up, not keen on the red unfortunatly bcoz i had red leather in my old car, the steel colour looks wild definetly keen on that

[ARTZ]

you could probably even do the whole seat in it,just get a black or dark grey stitching to help it match with the plastics..But i think it would look better as an insert

yeeh i agree need some sort of black in there to match the plastcis

Black with grey alacantra!

I liked black with blue so i redid my 32 with the fake leather custom seat covers off ebay.

[ARTZ]

how do you find the quality of those ebay covers, they are definately good value, i was considering them just cause one of mine standard covers has ripped.

Black with grey alacantra!

alcantra looks shit hot but it doesnt wear well and can stain, i wouldnt use it on a car I was going to use daily its too high maintenance..

[Mohsen]

I was thinking having the centers alacantra. Where your ass and back is, and the rest leather

Black (or dark grey) with red stiching is awesome. (My next upgrade on my white R34)

Black with silver stitching would look good too.

Sorry buddy, but black is done time and time again for a reason. Almost everything else looks cheesy unless it's a luxury car with a luxury colour and the rest of the interior/facia has been trimmed to match. Honda S2000 for example, get away with red leather because they do all the door trims and some facias too.

If you refuse to do black...stick to bright solid primary colours with a white sports car...i.e. red, blue, yellow. Dull colours tend to work better with luxury cars.

guys above are right about alcantara my lexus has it its fine if you dont sit on it or use it in anyway shape or form, praticalality wise its fkn shocking.

I'm just going to assume that this is an RX2 with Simmonds wheels and a Kustom Krazy Krokodile Green paint job.

Cream leather interior is the only way to go mate.

black or bride graduation material

you talk about cheesy then suggest bright colours..doesnt add up birds.

Also black doesnt match with skyline platsics, better of with a dark flat grey.

Nothing wrong with any shades of grey on white or black,

Plus, Leather says luxury, a skyline is a luxury sports car so luxury colours will work fine, too many people try to sport up skylines. I think a classy looking luxury skyline will attract alot less attention from the fuzz than a sported up one with bright flashy seats.

More euro style skylines I reckon, I'm tired of ricers..Your car is the perfect example Birds, it would look better done in a luxury style than sported up.

Anyway to each his own I guess , thats just my opinion

Sly333, go have a look at some new cars that are white and see what colour leather they use, the new GT fords have some nice colours schemes goin on, and some of the new euros have awesome interiors
