Are there any samples of the interior color combos? Im looking for something in a light-grey color with white mixed in I think...My dash is a grey/silver color. Any suggestions/recommendations would also be appreciated. Below is a picture of my dashboard for reference.

My carpet is now black btw. And I do plan on doing a white steering wheel eventually.




For reference, this is kind of the interior combo I was going for. Obviously, not my cars. I'm not sure if it's too much grey though.






I was also thinking of going with this gray and off-white combo.

That red Bug is mine...

The seat covers were custom-ordered from Sewfine > Sewfine Interior Products.
The seating surfaces are grey mix tweed cloth, the side trim is dark grey xtreme vinyl, and the piping color is off-white.

The carpet is medium-grey German square-weave from Wolfsburg West > Carpet Kits

The door panels are original to the car.

this is merely my opinion but...I think the pale grey upholstery/trim would look rather too grey and colourless, especially with a white steering wheel. I wonder if a brick red would work or maybe a mid brown or blue. it would have to be a definite tone/shade and not a pale colour otherwise it will look half hearted. personally I think that if your carpet is black it would be better to keep the steering wheel dark grey to tie the interior tones together. if you want a white wheel then keep the grey carpet.

I know this isn't a seat but shows how a red/brown can compliment the silver/grey
