I have a Black Coupe with Black interior. The bolsters are worn as they all get so I'm thinking of getting new seat covers. At first I was just going to get black again but then I got to thinking. I had put red inserts on the rear and liked the way it contrasted with the black paint. I first thought about red inserts in black seat covers but now I'am thinking about red seat covers! What do you think would look better? Better yet does anyone have any pictures?
 
Although we don't have a black coupe, here's our Electron Blue convertible with red interior. We love it...but it's one of those either you hate it or you love it colors!;)

IMHO Those two tone seats look like saddle shoes to me or those funny pants from the 70s with different color pockets. Stick with Black. Put some of those Wolf Bolster Bra covers on your seats. Find an auto upholstery shop and have your seat repaired.
 
Some guys go way overboard on adding color to the interior, or the engine bay.
There's a fine line between subtle enhancement, and overkill! A comment always posted, "it's your car, go for it". True, but if it's really tarted up it will affect your resale value. My 2 sense!

Seat covers

I just purchase Wet Okole covers for my 2001. They are great. They fit ferfect and look even better plus the options of colors and patterns is huge.

 
Check out Vette Essentials. I just replaced my interior in my 99 convertible. He has pleny of pis on the web site and will do anything you want.
 
I have to agree with bluecoupe & jetz, I look at some of those seat covers and interiors and wonder how bad is it underneath? I would invest in upholstery, not covers; it's a Corvette not a Yugo.

Torch Red and black

I have a 1999 Torch Red Coupe with all black interior and I am thinking about recovering my all black seats with a black and red look. Here are the seats I think I am going to use, so what do we think?
