Help me pick my Wet Okole seat covers!

[E36DJ]

I'm having issues with this..

This is my interior, dove grey.. that is the design of the seat covors, however my car is Estoril Blue and I want a color combination that is a little more wild. This is what I'm thinking..

"Euro style half piping seat covers are
made with black as the outside color, any
solid color inside with piping to match the
inside color."

Can you picture dove grey side bolsers and trim (basically what's black in that pic) with estoril blue (cobalt blue in their options) center? This would also have estoril blue stitching in the dove grey sections. I would keep the "///M" logo in the center as in the pic.

I have had my Wet Okole covers for two years now, and I have to suggest going with as much black as possible - Not only do they show wear and discoloration as easily as the Dove Grey interior, but they are also not as easy to clean even with their "special cleaner."

I am just going to either finally pony up the cash for the interior dye job, or order a new set of Okoles as they aren't that expensive.

Good luck whatever the choice.

Nooooooooo that sucks, I might as well get race seats up front or something. That's kinda depressing, the estoril outter trim w/ grey centers would look nice.

So I can't take them off and throw them in the washer? lol

Dude honestly, go with the race seats. It will cost you more in the end but you will be happier I guarantee it. Even if you have to just get the one driver seat and then replace the passenger when you can, it is a smarter route IMHO.

I can't get race seats because my shoulders are too wide at 54," so I am totally screwed. Add to that the fact that the only seats I like are $1400 a piece, and it's the double screwed.

Doesn't sparco make leather race seats? I loooooooooooooooooved the idea of the two tone estoril/grey

edit: why did you move this.. whore.

who looks at the pole forum.. I mean really..

Dude you've got the wrong guy - I didn't move anything. I'm too lazy to take the time. However, I can easily START fucking with you if you like....

So what should I do then? Kerscher lip is going to be $250ish, I'll have 450 to do something else before bimmerfest. Give me some ideas, what would have the largest impact before the show? I need to refinish my rims so maybe I should get that over with, and polish them in the process? Hmm.

Right now Polka dot pink trim with little light blue penises is the clear winner.

Okay, okay. Biggest impact for $450. Hmm....

I will think on this and give my honest answer tonight, although my answer will be purely performance-oriented and probably not the type of visual aesthetic upgrade that I suspect you want, Alex. :/

Whistle tips? Chrome fender trim? Dingo Balls? The HOT shit!!

Okay, I thought about it.

Paint your moldings. It won't cost anywhere near $450 to do right and will give exactly the "trick" or "custom" look that I think you want. I do not personally care for it one bit on Estoril, but I have to admit that it is more in line with what you have in mind for your car as far as being visually show-stopping.

My poll.....!!!!!!!

TAINT..!


I quit dtmpower..



ok actually I was thinking about the same thing earlier tonight at dinner, my friend is getting them done for $50 and his is estoril too so they probably have the paint mixed already. I'll see what the deal is but that's a good idea, as long as I'm getting the kerscher lip I'll need to paint that anyways. I can re-paint my eyelids too (they are ghetto painted..)

[CMT]

I have to be honest...I have never been a fan of it on Estoril, but I am so damn sick of dressing the moldings up every week that I have also been giving it a lot of thought. I am tired of trying to keep the car looking good and then walking out to it one day and seeing that the mldings look like ass because I forgot to attend to them.

I will fix the poll right now.
