Default Opinions on seat color choices??

I'm getting my seats recovered in pleather, but I can't decide which colors to go with. My car is a white 5th gen coupe, gray interior. I'm trying to decide between white in the center with gray on the outsides of the seats, or a light gray in the centers with a darker gray on the outsides. I know most of this board is not into appearance upgrades, and that's fine. Please help me decide between the 2, instead of posting how I should TC the car.
Thanks.

what I wanna do is.... get a black carpet kit, and redo my seats in black on the outside with grey insert in the middle

that would make a great grey/black theme... white wouldn't work with that color grey.

if you are set between those two... get dark grey and grey.....

Alright thanks! I think I'm leaning that way. White would be a lot harder to clean anyway.

thats what I was thinking too....I don't think the white would look too good..and it would probably be a b!tch to keep clean.

Don't THINK about white leather seats... I've seen a few of them in our gen Civics... Looks cheesey! I agree with a Grey/Red or evena Black/Red... man I sweat the new Si seats!

even neoprene would be cooler than pleather, and it won't burn your fat legs on a hot day! some sort of clothe... Check out Katzkins covers. My friend has a set, and they look :thumbup:
