Too much red?

I bought my 10th anniv convertible because of the red leather inserts instead of the suede. I like to slide into the seat when I get into the car, and I have found that the suede catches in my clothes. Also, If you're going to have a red interior, this is the right amount. IMHO it also is a better shade of red (a tough darker and richer) than the BMW M3 interior red.

Couldn't of said it better myself. I like the fact that the seats are all smooth leather and the red inserts are a deep, vibrant color. I love the black Cobra embroidered on the seat, unmistakable looking through the window. The "carbon fiber weave" on shifter and steering wheel are a trick look as well and goes with the flamboyant interior nicely.

Hey loose nut, that looks really sharp! What kind of paint did you use?

I had them painted at Santini's (famous in SoCal for painting hotrods and project cars) in Westminster, CA (714) 891-8895 (ask for Pete)

I don't know what paint he used, but everything he does is top quality so I'm sure he used the best...he may even have mixed it custom. I gave him the red door inserts to match, and he got damn close...looks factory...even the texture. The picts don't do it justice. :beer:

Yeah...that is the FASTEST barn I have ever seen !!! :lol:

FYI on the console: I saved the original 10th annv parts "as-is", these are a second set I bought and had painted...I want to be able to put it back to OE someday. Thanks. :beer:
