It's a classic 'leather against metal' colour combo that's always looked great. I've got 2 of these chairs - you could go down the 'destroyed' leather route?

Same. The quality is much nicer and luxurious.Darkangelv2 wrote: ↑Fri Jul 24, 2020 9:07 am Definitely Nappa
Mine was done in "Bentley Grade" Nappa (whatever that means). Its lovely stuff and feels far more luxurious than the standard grained leather.

For those interested, here's my Silver Grey/Caramel combo...
In my humble opinion, it's the perfect blend of colours. The tan leather is a really nice matt finish, which gives it a really nice luxury feel against the silver grey!-

Leather Retrim ideas for Silver Grey E86
Interested in how you get on. I’ve got the New England leather option (so better leather, full door cards and sun visors!) but looking at retrimming dash, gear gator, steering wheel etc. Rugby would be near me.QUIKSTER wrote: ↑Wed Jul 22, 2020 8:49 pm Hey Folks,
Have decided to the get my tired OE Ivory White Sport seats and door cards retrimmed on my Silver Grey E86.
Went to see EDGE Automotive in Rugby today but made the mistake of looking at many colour samples.
I like the tan's and caramel shades but keen to get ideas off others, something within this colour range and that goes well with Silver Grey and my brushed silver interior trim.
Any pics of would be very helpful.
Oh and cost wise I'm looking at £1450, I know, big investment on a car of this age, but its gonna be a keeper and got a buyer lined up for my Corrado Vr6.
I’d vote for a tan leather for your car. Think it would look great.

I didn't think I'd like Caramel in an E86, but after seeing the photos I think it looks great.
Coupes because stunning!

That caramel looks fantastic, it's the perfect colour against piano black trim in my opinion. Once upon a time I had a black Alfa GTV with tan leather, probably the nicest looking car I've had until it caught fire.
