Default Suede Inserts?

Does anyone know anything about these....... Specifically COLOR?

I'm ordering the "Adrenaline Red" Interior (3 LT).......... And wondering whether these Suede Inserts are the same color??? ...... Or can be a contrasting color like Black!!!

My Viper had the Red/Black Interior and looked smokin!

I'm also ordering the carbon fiber interior........ So attempting to get a mental picture of my interior!

Submitted requested ordering info to Mike Furman just yesterday......

I'm Number 12......... On his list!!!!!

Neither. Real suede is leather. Alcantara (and Ultrasuede) are trademarked man-made micro-fiber materials that closely resemble suede but is better suited to upholstery (much more resistant to staining for example). These materials were created back in the early 1970's. GM is using a non-trademarked version.
