Default IS-F seat in a Tan IS250

I was testing out somethings on my car because the dealer broke my seat on the TSIB for the driver seat. I cant sit in that seat so i decided i need to upgrade the seat.

For all those curious of the black seats in a tan interior here you go. Now i just need to find passenger seat.

I need to find a passenger seat which is hard has hell to find. Gonna leave the armrest and such for better contrast. I will re-skin the backseat with the same leather as the IS-F but not replace it with IS-F seats.

This was the test to see if my back would feel ok to sit it. If it didnt i was going to put everything back sell the car and get something else.

It'll look good if you got the passenger seat, the rear seat and two tone the arm rest. Try Katskins for the rear seat!

Pros: IS-F seat has more lateral support

Cons: Color mismatch
No vented seat

I think once you find the passenger seat it should be okay. As for the center console being matching, mine is just the opposite. Light seats, black console, partially black doors.
