Interior help/advice
So I have a 1998 coupe with dark grey interior color code is "K". I just recently bought s2000 seats, and I was planning on reupholstering by back seats, but i didn't want to do the whole interior. I was thinking maybe just accents like the door panel redoing it with black vinyl where the cloth is. like how the type r is red make that part black. would that look tacky or would look good. any pics or seen it done before. let me know thanks.

So you think I sould do tweed on the door panels and have black s2k seats, what should I do about the back seats?

if it were me doing it, i would get some leather to match the front seats and find a shop to recover your rear seat to match then take a little extra and do the door panels too. but thats me.
i want to do some black and red stitch type r racaro's then have the rear done tomatch and get racaro stitched in also.

that is what i was planning on doing. becasue the s2k seats have like holes inthe middle section so do the same to the rear seats. make them match up clean.

if you want a clean look, this is what i did with my integra (before it was stolen) was to buy some black rsx leather rear seats. The rsx leather is perforated like the s2000, so the back and front seats match up exactly like you had bought the car stock with it. The only problem you run into is that the rear seats dont match up to be mounted and that they are thicker than stock. What i did was cut away the foam until it matches the foam of the integra/civic seat, dremel off the metal mounts, made my own mount with clothe hanger and tied it to the frame of the seat, and then mount the rear seat down with the stock screw. I also tied it down at the front with some cables that loop back to the stock mount bolt.
