Default Red Leather Interior Matching

What are some upgrades / changes you have made to change the color of something inside, or outside, the car to match the red interior?

This is almost the reason I bought my IS350. I'm looking for any ideas you guys might have done or in the progress of doing.

Here is a list of things I'm looking to do:

The F sport emblem background color is white and the F is black. The shop I go to can make the background red. I like this.

Clear vinyl floor mats that have a dark red (same as interior) inside it or at the bottom. I'm not sure if I'm explaining that properly, but I've seen them in my friends lexus is300 a long time ago, however his had a hint of blue. It was a lot more clear however which is what I'm looking for. I think this would look super awesome.

Found example of what I'm looking for.

Steering Wheel perhaps a sport flat bottom steering wheel that is red and black?

Rims with a red lip around the outer edge.


That's about all I can think of without getting to excessive. I really would like to figure out this floor mat thing but the clear red might not exist. If any of you know what I mean and know where to find it that would be appreciated.

My exterior is black and everything is being murdered out as of Tuesday. It's being wrapped in the Gloss black, and the front grill is being painted gloss black as well. This is in preparation for a matte finish vinyl wrap. Haven't decided on color or brand yet. My guy is recommending 3M and either deep black, white or satin white. I know white on red is possibly the most awesome color combo known on the planet.

I will post another thread with pics of the before and afters for sure!

treading a fine line between tacky and nice depending on how it's implemented...
