I don't really like it either but if you can find a car that meets your requirements otherwise go ahead and ****** it up, there are plenty of people that like the mod red interior and would be willing to swap you... it's just a few parts to change and not difficult

I'd love a mod red interior for my Z. I'll trade my 20k mile almost perfect black interior pieces anytime you want.

Too bad there isn't such a thing as a 'mod yellow'....I've got a dandy black interior that would love yeller accents.

Agreed. They should have had more interior color options. I mean, mod red on a yellow car?

I'm sure an upholstery shop could do that for you but it may not be cheap and the results may be less than desirable if they don't do a good job

Everyone has different tastes. For me, a mod red interior is a great addition to a car.

I wouldn't have it any other way. Although I'd prefer Torch Red exterior over my black exterior.

You could easily have Mod Yellow seat skins made. Either from this ebay company @ 399 plus 40 shipping from Australia, or from Rides with multiple opinions of leather, custom logos, stitching perforations etc. for 599, shipped.

Mod Red as the Int on a Z06 is the bomb...everything else pales OEM.


YMMV, but not mine.

I have the mod red in my 02Z and love it, actually preferred it to all black, but if I could have anything I want it would be a blue and black combo.

Torch Red with Mod Red is my choice. Your Black Z looks great as well ! IMHO Mod Red looks very dynamic and really sets the car off. I get a lot of positive reactions when people see my interior.
