Default Passenger air bag, Black or SEM a tan one??

Ok guys, i can get a 97 passenger airbag for my black interior conversion. Should i get the OEM Tan 97 passenger airbag for $250 or the OEM Black passenger airbag for $320 bucks ( might be able to get it to $300). I have a 90% complete black OEM interior in my storage right now.

So what would you do and what do you think I should do...help me out fellas!!!!

Anytime you can save $$$$, go that route, in my book. Is anything else in the car painted with SEM?

Im thinking tan too. I have am almost complete 97+ interior (things i dont have are door panels and the door window trims). The airbag is deployed in the 97 dash. I have a 1993 sc400 so my airbag wont work. I am currently having my supra seats and rear seats rehpolstered. So I am going to swap out my rear half from tan to black. Put my seats in and then SEM the door pannel red and the door pocket black. When i get an airbag im swapping in the 97 dash (complete with harness) and im picking up a 98 sc400 cluster to go with it.

SO yeah ill have some SEM stuff but 90% of it will be OEM black

the airbag on the 97 is a "top" mounted one. The 93-96 are a front/top airbag! i searched it and even aliga said they arent compatable! Gonna sell my 93 interior to recoupe some funds!
