    Hi guys,

    I'm planning on buying a new car soon (particularly the Kia Carens) and am torn between getting the Silver one or the White one. Personally, I like the Silver color BUT the silver Carens only comes with black/grey interiors. The White Carens, on the other hand, comes with beige interiors which I find absolutely beautiful. In other words, I want a Silver Carens with beige interior - unfortunately, this combo is non-existent.

    As a compromise, I was thinking of getting the Silver Carens but will install brown leather seatcovers on it. I was just wondering... if the car has a black/grey interior, would brown leather seatcovers look okay? Or would that look weird and should I just stick to black leather seatcovers?

    If any of you have actually installed brown leather seat covers on your black/grey car interior, I would appreciate some pics.

    imho. if the dash is black or gray, nothing can go wrong with the black or gray seatcovers.

    if the dash is beige, the brown seat cover suits it fine.

    Wow, thanks bro MXFX! These do look good! I guess as long as I'm able to get a good set of leather seatcovers, brown seatcovers would look just as good in a black/grey car interior! Thanks again!

    By the way, is the 2nd pic the interior of a Chery car? That's their logo right? Parang maganda din pala.

    I hope to get more comparison pics! :D

    your welcome dude. if you cant decide between light or dark, i would suggest dark brown with your black gray interior. my wife and i tried getting the brown leather for the sentra, but was hard to find.

    be sure to post yours when you get it.

    Is that your Sentra in the pic? If not, do you have pics of that?

    Thanks for the input, bro 1D4LV!

    Yup, there is definitely no question about black/grey seatcovers on black/grey dash and brown seatcovers on beige dash.... What I was hoping for some input on (and possibly some pictures of) the possibility of having brown seatcovers in a black/grey interior dash?

Brown Leather Seatcovers on Black/Grey Interior?
