May I suggest a slightly different tack for the interior?
I saw this on a Ferrari 355 and it was striking. Keep the green! Since the outside is dark green, and most cars had some form of two tone, leave what was black, dark green, perhaps alcantara type of a material.
Same with the carpets, dark dark green.
The seats and doors, very light creme or off white. Accent with a light pastel green - stitching, things like that.
Done right, that could be very stunning.
I know what your talking about, and no doubt I think it would look good - but I think she would rather just have it back stock looking.
From what I can tell no matter what I do, go back all green or go all black it's gonna cost me about $1800 (using synth seat covers) to fix the interior up right. Real leather seats are gonna be about 250-300 more....
I'm $7000 into the car as it sits. Over the next year or so I figure an additional 3-5K to fix stuff. So 10-12K into it (total) isn't too bad. Will
