Jazzy Posted November 11, 2008 Share Posted November 11, 2008 Been looking into replacing my front seats with a set of black leather recaro speeds (currently have UK leathers). Colour had never really come into it as black seemed perfect. However I saw this picture recently and it's got me thinking of the possibility of red seats. Unfortuately the picture isn't enough to help make an informed decision so was hoping some of you may have a picture of red buckets in a Supra. Also considering a middle ground of black bolsters with red inserts, again any pictures would be appreciated Many thanks, James. http://www.obtuse.de/Bilder/MKIV/pics/1142405682_l.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hoff Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Red in black looks really good. Wish I had taken the plunge when I got new seats. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 Yeah I really do like the contrast of the red in the sea of black. I was looking at the Recaro speeds with black leather bolsters and red suede centres today, a rather tempting middle ground Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 Im not sure myself, mine goes in soon for a retrim (black leather and suede) and i was thinking of having red stitching to match my momo tuner steering wheel but im still in two minds:search: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoff Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 The red stitching will be nice and subtle Jamie and if it matches the steering wheel too all the better. I think it'll look good mate:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 I think the red seats with black car look great but I do think they have to be proper bucket seats as it doesnt look too good with leather seats imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jazzy Posted November 12, 2008 Author Share Posted November 12, 2008 but I do think they have to be proper bucket seat Totally agree on that. From what I can find, the black Supra in my 1st post is using these seats: Very tempted, although I'm not sure if going from leather to fabric would feel like a sort of downgrade, which is why I'm siding towards the part leather / suede Recaros Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Posted November 12, 2008 Share Posted November 12, 2008 This might be a good thread to look through, loads of black supra's posted and I've seen the black with red seats lot's of times on sf http://www.supraforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=352714 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
