Honestly, I don't think that Sapphire Blue could possibly go with Classic Red (or any red for that matter). IMHO, blue and red just don't go together.

True that. Unless you want to be motherfucking Spiderman or something.

Sapphire Blue is a pretty distinct color that doesn't lend itself to being combined with another dark color unlike, say Mariner Blue.

i vote no go on the red+blue.

red + black, red+ grey, red + tan are all good.

i know it doesnt sound original by any means, but i find that different isn't always better in some cases...

red and grey and red and tan are UGH in my book. I think I'll stick with red and black.

giryan, have you ever had your car detailed? It looks like it's got horrible buffer trails/holograms.

If you were near to me i'd have that sorted in a jiffy!

I admit, that color combo looks good, but I seriously do not think a Classic Red car is going to work with Sapphire Blue interior. IMHO, it just won't work. Maybe in reverse, but not as he is postulating it.

I don't think a blue interior would look good in a red car. When i imagine a blue interior, I can't help think of forgettable Japanese and Korean cars from the early 80's!

Go for black inside and get the instrument cowl retrimmed in leather with red stitching 8)

What have you done to my car!



OK, so blue cars with red interior can definitely be good, but you've talked me round regarding red with blue.

No, I haven't I keep meaning to do a really good job on it, but I don't think I'm quick/good enough, it always seems to take so long so I run out of time before I actually get it looking really good.

And tbh that photo is a bit misleading, the car was filthy but the sun was really bright and shining through the dirt hence the really bad looking marks

But if you're offering

not saying my PS isn't biased (btw, sorry giryan) but it does look a little... colorful.

now if you were to get some heliums or c8's and paint them red with white spokes.... hoo baby!

in germany we say: rot und blau schmückt die sau

i dont want to translate this sentence, it was aleays a joke

but serious, it comes along, what blue you use, if its a very dark blue, i think it would look fine, with a too light blue it would seem like spiderman
