Interior options
Discussion
Morning all
Having the interior of my car done as part of its 'refesher' and I am still looking for inspiration. Had a mooch round Chatsworth on Sunday so I have some ideas as to what I want but not decided. Therefore I thought I would ask the TVR populous for your input.
Pic below shows my current interior, the exterior of the car is Chameleon blue. Ideally I want a different colour (as I feel I would be getting more for my money with a complete change) Dark carpets are desirable as light grey looks grubby eventually. Not too keen on quilting but would not discount it completely. I like the idea of contrast stitching on the leather but not sure about carpets.
I had been having crazy? thoughts about going for something predominantly black (carpets and most of the other interior parts that you would cover with leather) with red/black seats and red accents on the dash to liven it up! (see pic) The other idea I was pondering was to go with a colour(s) complimenting the paint as it flips blue/purple/green.
What do you think??

Mmm,not keen on red and black seats with Chameleon paint, just too many bright, contrasting colours, IMHO. Black and portland seats, with black carpets and portland trim would look good.
Mine is an emerald blue flip with black and portland.

Yes I second that, regards clashing. Too bright and contrasting and takes away the value from the chameleon blue. If I was to start from scratch, I think I would come up with your current interior. It looks so suited to the chamelion blue. In other words, I wouldn't change it. But then what do I know. I'm an accountant, the only thing I'm creative with is numbers

Black and Portland is one of my favourites. How about doing the seats Ferrari Daytona style as per the Tuscan/Vulcan or whatever it's called 
Andy, not sure what to suggest regarding colours, but did you see the interior of Dave the Trimmers black Tuscan?
From memory mostly black Alcantara with red stitching, also had the old logo stitched into the seat, (it would look perfect on an Iced Titanium Tam), as you would expect though, there's a fairly hefty price to pay for such quality.
Did anyone get a photo of it?
Just noticed - how close to the wall is that Griff

For another gratuitous take on the Black and Portland theme. This is from my Reflex Charcoal T350t. I went with the purple stitching to go with the purple in the paint. Just trying to find purple seat belts now.
Loving the steering wheel.... 
If you find TVR Racing Purple seat belts - LET ME KNOW !!!!!!
