my friend says he has a tan interior in his Cougar (?) and says that blue matches better than you'd think. i think he said dark blue. his car is silver if i remember correctly. i am afraid of comitting a "style" crime so i don't wanna experiment. anyone know anybody with a tan interior and evo recaro seats?

I dunno... might look kinda odd in your car price is really cheap too I would be concerned with quality of the seat at 80 bucks a pop... good racing seats usually start at 500 a seat and go up quickly from there. The Recaro's Sparco's and Bride seats are usually close to if not over 1000 bucks a seat.

They're probably cloth or vinyl though.. You could go to your local discount auto parts or a similar place and get the same quality seats. They may cost more but you'll pay the same after shipping plus you'll be able to check the seats out first.

Another option would be to pick up a set of seats that you like reguardless of color or pattern then take them down to a apulstry shop and get them recovered in whatever color style pattern you want

That would probably cost as much as finding seats that already match.

that was my original thought too. i'd try to find some used...preferably in kinda rough shape. that way it keeps the initial cost down. tan racing seats would be pimp!
