Default 2 tone or black with colored stitching seats

My LMB vert currently has a 2 tone interior with solid cashmere seats. I would like to upgrade to solid black seats with cashmere top stitch and lettering similar to this below. My main concern is will this clash too much with the cashmere carpet? Any one have pics or experience on a similar upgrade?

No issues. You can go with solid black seats against the lighter carpet, no problem. Will look fantastic.

Or you could go with a two tone black/cashmere with cashmere stitching.

I have the same LMB vert and I'm looking into doing the two tone upgrade seat skins. I'm thinking black with dark gray inserts and red stitching (or gray stitch). still debating on some of the details. I ordered samples to compare. I just know that the solid black seat is too "blah" in my opionon and need to break up the interior a bit.

do you have pics of your two tone? I'm curious what it currently looks like

I think either will work fine honestly. Theres plenty of black in the cashmere interior still. I think I would do cashmere inserts with cashmere stitch personally.

Pretty standard 3Lt cashmere interior,,basically 2 tone panels with solid cashmere seats. I can't wait to update the seats this winter.

I had two tone in my first LMB. I loved the look. Current LMB has just gray.
