Looking for opinions
So ive got mk2 airbagged vts seats and access to about 3/4 of a hide of leather and a generous amount of alcantara not to mention an upholsterer grandad. Only thing is the leather and alcantara are a light blue. Whats peoples opinions on light blue interior (just seats)
Cheers

If I had a grandad as an upholsterer then I wouldn't be going along the lines of blue leather seats?
If your car is silver then pick up some cheap 106 GTI seats that need work doing to them and get you grandad to re-upholster them, your add value to them and get some decent seats

Well hes retired but he has loads of blue lying around and its really good quality. I did think of 106 gtis but everyone else gets them and think this would be completely different. But thanks for your opinion mate

If you do go for the blue then you may as well make it a theme, but blue can quite easily bee seen as looking chavy so you have to be careful. Blue Rallye carpet might go with them, as said above though, a picture is needed really

Will look good if combined with black leather. I still think you would be better of just getting 106 gti seats to be honest mate!

Not my cup of tea but it's your car, some will like, others won't, maybe with blue rallye carpet might look decent! But it's your choice mate!
