Interior Opinion???
Any one have an opinion on this? I can't make up my mind. Some of you have seen that I am converting my beige interior to a black and beige interior slowly. I thought the LeatherZ door pads would be comfortable and I thought the contrast would be nice, but now I am not so sure. I keep putting them on and taking them off not sure enough to stick them on with the adhesive. Almost think it is too much black.
Before/current - everything except the opening lever is not black or beige. After / If I install. These are not attached and are kind of just laying on there, so don't mind the straightness - just the color.

I've never been a fan of their armrests or console box thing. They just don't look like they belong and they'll damage your interior if not removed properly.

Good - I was not warming up to the look either. I though it would be a nice contrast when I ordered them but not so much in person.
I will move on and someone will just get a deal! lol Thanks for the input.

They do seem like they would be comfortable, but I just did not like the look the way I thought I would. Black on black would look nice though.........

I'm not a fan as it is now, but I think it would be better with more black on the door card. Its too..selectively contrasty, like there isn't enough balance.

Get beige ones. Do consider black floor mats if you want more black in the interior.

I thought about black floor mats, but I tossed a black towel on the floor and it looked odd. I did not have enough other black in there to balance it out I do not think. That is why I bought the M mats I have now - could not find non-M beige floor mats and the ones that were in there were not OEM and did not fit great.
After I get more black in there, I may try again.

I agree on the suggestion to get beige armrest pads.. LeatherZ should be able to do them in any color you want.
As for the mats, how about black cocomats with beige ("natural") dots?

P.S. They fit fine once I raised the seat a bit so they could fit underneath.

Never heard of those matts before, they look like what Indian cab drivers have on their seats.. Is that what it is? (Not meaning to be racist or anything, it's just that I don't know what those seat covers are called otherwise)

Beware of crappy imitations - there are some very sketchy quality coconuts out there. Only the ones from cocomats.com are the good quality stuff... http://cocomats.com
