Default Which looks better?

Since I still have my black interior laying around I figured I would try something a little different. Let me know what you think. Which seat looks better? All saddle or Black with saddle?

I prefer all saddle. Black in such a big piece looks mismatched rather than a nice accent.

I kind of like the black as it compliments the door panel, but I still prefer the saddle.

I was thinking the same exact thing, it'd be easier to keep clean. But purely aesthetics wise, I prefer all saddle. Not by a lot tho

All Saddle but it's really hard to choose! And to be completely honest I've never been a fan of Saddle.

To me it's just not executed very well in the GS. Black carpet, Saddle seats, back to black on the dash and armrest, then to grey on pillars and roof. It's just too much. For that reason I prefer black interior. Saddle is a really beautiful color, I just can't convince myself into the hype. BTW your interior is super clean.
