Default Two tone interior question, pics please...

Maybe I'm just getting old, but I think I've seen two tone interiors in two different layouts...am I just imagining things?

On the bottom seat cover; Some have the center color continuing all the way out to the front edge of the seat, but some only have the perforated sections of the seat in the second color. Am I imagining things or is this correct? If correct, what determines the difference?

If you have pics, could you please post...

The 3LT and 4LT have different 2-Tone seats.

I prefer the 4LT look over the 3LT

This is a 2 tone that can be ordered with a 2LT or 3LT package



This is a 4LT interior

Also, in the 3LT/2LT/1LT is you choose cashmere, the carpet will be cashmere as well.

Thank you, that answers the question, now I just have to decide which one I like better. I have to have the seat bottoms custom made because mine is Steel Gray ('05), so I could go either way. They both look good.

I have the 3LT ebony/titanium but would prefer the 4LT look. It seems to be more symetrical as if the bucket is one color and the seat frame is another. On the other hand, it is a lot of money for one bolster when you are buying it from the factory.

You really need to look at both interiors. We did that in the spring of 08 where one had the 4LT and the other the 3LT and the wife liked the 3LT better so that is what we got. I am very happy with how our center section of the seats has held up for us, but I clean them several times a month with Lexol

Here are a couple more for you

Here is a picture of my current interior. After looking at the picture of yours I think mine would look very close to it, yours being Titanium Gray and mine being Steel Gray. I have until Tuesday to decide...that's when it goes into the upholstery shop. I'm sure either way (3LT or 4LT design) will look good, I just hate making decisions.



If you could make the decision again, would you make the same one?

The 3LZ shown here which is the same as the 4LT adds the leather compliments to the dash, doors and center console. Although it's $3,500 added cost for this feature, if given the choice to do it again, I wouldn't change a thing.

Yes I am completely happy with our decision, the only part of the 4LT I do not care for is the linen on the dash, looks out of place to me. I posted pictures of ours before I added more CF items from TKO so you would have close to stock as possible only the first picture had the console cover and shifter and parking boots from a forum vendor Carskinks

I agree with you about the dash, but since I'm only changing the seats, I think I'm going to try the 4LT design. Still, your car looks really great, if I already had that, I wouldn't change it.

I understand...it's a matter of preference.

When I was shopping last year I could have bought an all black 3LZ interior with VY but I went 1500 miles out of my way for this one.

Just wanted a different look since all black interiors are more common.

NVR LAT...I think your new seat skins will look awesome. Breaks up the interior just enough to look tasteful.

For those with 3LT ebony/titanium, how well does the titanium hold up, does it discolor at all through months/years?
