Home Made Two Tone Interior

Ok so I didn’t like the whole Parchment color of my 06’ so I bought a brand new set of take off seat covers ( Charcoal) to mix it up a bit. $85 for a complete front and back set!! The head rest are being embroidered so they will be on next week!!

What do you all Think!!

Not something I would have done, but what ever floats your boat I guess. maybe if you did a leather 2 tone scheme. the Cloth just looks outta place.

I dig it! Nice! I love the two tone look my 07 has, maybe you should think about doing the carpet and are the headrest going to be charcoal? Leathers overated especially Ford leather I have had it on my last two cars including my last stang, I'm glad I went cloth now.

If you can't swing the carpet as suggested above, I would definately go with charcoal mats to even it out a bit and match your door panels.

You know the more I see of the two tone interior the more I like it. The only one I don't like so far is the GT red leather / charcoal offered from the factory.

Graet Idea about the black floor mats and to answer Shaun81's question, yes the headrests are charcoal and I'm having them embroidered with color to match the parchment accents!! And I agree with you on the leather!! Especailly here is Phoenix in the summer and winter OUCH!!!

Hmmm. Interesting. I also suggest you get some vinyl dye from your local auto paint supply store and paint the parchment plastic pieces. Either that or invest in some new ones that match, or find some in a junk yard. That would finish off the look.

Being a fan of two-tone, I think it looks good!!! I was going to get parch at first, but then I could not come up with a good two-tone look......and plus parch is too hard to keep clean, oh wait a minute, I put in WHITE!!!!

I did a similar two tone with GT LL.I went a little over board with the Katskin Interior but the quality is awesome.The install took me about 5 hours.I think your your interior turn out really nice.

( the light throws the color off a bit.I ordered a two tone Katskin for my 07' GT but I'm waiting until after the suspension mods to be completed before installing.)

I wasn't too sure about it, with the first pictures, but I think it actually came out pretty cool! I'm thinking about changing the seats out in my 2000 to black (currently light gray) Mach I seats, so I think you made up my mind to try to get the cash together to do it.

Yeah, thank's for spending my money for me...

Seriously though, it looks great, good job!
