Default Interior Color Swap

I am helping a buddy out who drove my Z over the weekend and decided that he MUST have one.

He can get a good deal on one with the Red interior but wants black.

Does anyone know how much it would be to swap the seat covers and other panels that are red with black interior pieces? Does anyone do this aftermarket?

Honestly, the amount it would cost, why not just order a new one the way you want?

Thats a big job! Seats tops I have seen done! Have not seen bottoms done.

Heard to replace stock seats as a whole about 6k
John Caravaggio make aftermarket ones I believe same number!
I could be wrong
Brow,armrest, and center console plus side console trim has to come close to 700 as well.
I would take advice from other Forum members other cars out there. Or factory order!! May be beter for your friend.
Good luck

Pass and get the right car. I would not swap interior on a new car!
Makes no sense!

Ideally maybe try to find someone that wants a red interior and just do a swap?

Be patient and wait to either order or find the car that has what you want.
Don't even think about changing out interior colors as there are many areas other than seats that also must match.

What seat package does he have? , I am looking for a new yellow Z with a red interior with competition seats, can find lots of Black ones. PM me if he is serious about a possible interior trade.
