Car's body color is matte orange,
Wheels and strip accent is matte gray.
Looking now to interior. I have narrowed it down to 5 seats (these exact seats in these exact colors). I will pull the color and color accents into the door panels and center console. Which ever one gets the most votes is the one that gets ordered. I like the tan one but they have been on back order for 2 months and I am not sure if it is worth the wait or if I should go in a different direction.
Thanx for the advice, and the choices are.....

With your orange car, I like the tan also. But if you don't want to wait, I think the seats on the second thumbnail with the charcoal cloth inserts and the reddish beading would work really well. Looks like they might be a little easier to get in and out of than some of the others, too. Just my .02
Not a fan of orange w/ tan. I'd go w/ #1 or #4. I think the red stitching on the others may clash w/ the orange as well.

I think seat 5, the tan would work great. If the piping in seat 3 were color matched to your orange, it would be great, I'm not sure how well red piping would work with your color scheme, though. I'm not feeling the shape of the harness slots in seats 1, 2 and 4 (although proper ergonomics is more important than aesthetics if you're using a harness!)

Here is the color again and the wheel color (Gun Metal), I think the red might go ok with that deep of orange....maybe. I can also change the red stitch to white for no extra charge on seat #2.

I like the third, you might need to switch the piping.

Seats 1 and 3 have better side support. Your going to need it.

I like #3. I just do not see tan working with the black dash and black carpet. Also remember the donor seat belts you have are grey.

Since the car is going to be that burnt orange and gun metal colored wheels. I would say stay with Black or a Black/grey, maybe something like Black outer with a grey tweed cloth in the center.

I would go for seat 3 or 5. Seat 5 May not work colour wise? But it's a great sports shape

#5 would look good if the rest of your interior is also beige or at least has something to tie in the beige. Otherwise I do go with 4, 3, or 1. Not a fan of 2.

I agree with the others.
I really like # 5, but it probably won't do as well with matte orange as the black seats would.
# 3 would be my next choice, but like the other's mentioned, the red piping may clash a little with the orange. It might be hard to tell until they were next to each other.
So #4 looks like it would be the best bet, especially if you don't want to have them re-worked.
If you were to decide to have them recovered, I'd go with #5 all day.

What orange have you chosen, who makes it? I like the FFR Sunset metallic orange but I have been unable to locate it anywhere.

My pick is number 3. But honestly, I'm not crazy about any of them as laid out. Number 5 absolutely if you could get it in black.
Agreed with others posts that red stitching won't work will with the orange.

Seat #5 comes in black. See link above for color options in this style.

Tan is definitely out in my book.
Red stitching will clash with the orange. (love the orange by the way)
I like the look of black and grey, which will complement the orange so #4.

Jim I say 4 , but I would look at sparcos and momo seats also, I am not a huge fan of the choices. I like the #3 design but red won't work with orange

Seems like #5 was the clear winner so this morning I ordered them in black with white stitching.
