I understand that red standouts to criminals, but the it also accents well with black, like little subtle touchs of red on a black car. I favor red because it accents against black better, just like the red/clear taillights. Are you going to paint the red on the red/clears black too? Bad example cause you could say, am I going to paint the wheels red, but then again I subtle accents, not overkill .

If theives weren't a question, would you still get black seats?

i don't think it makes much difference if it was red or black seats to attract thieves
,,, all thieves i think would look inside a car first to see what you have before they try anything , any car parked outside that looks fixed up or lowered would attract thieves already
thanks for your votes
