Default Miami Blue…interior accents: Racing Yellow or Miami Blue?

My 718 Boxster S is Miami Blue with a solid black interior. I’d like to add some color on the inside. I’ve seen Shark Blue cars with yellow gauges/belts, which is a cool contrast. With Miami Blue, should I just go with matching MB belts and gauges, or would Racing Yellow be a cool contrast? Thoughts?

p.s. If I had the yellow brake calipers, I’d definitely go with yellow on the interior.

Blue.. But TBH with a black interior on that car, the best answer is chalk belts and gauges

I'd stick with Miami Blue seat belts/accents.

I love the yellow accents on a blue car, but also believe it's best paired w/ pccb yellows. I might have to go w/ Stealth on this one... Chalk/silver/etc.

Going against the grain here, but my MB came with yellow seatbelts and stitching and my iron brakes are also painted yellow. I had a similar decision to make when I was purchasing my roll bar. Ultimately I went with yellow and have no regrets.

Miami blue seat belts are beautiful. I've seen them in person. I would go with yellow only if I had PCCBs.

I say go with yellow! I have yellow stitch belts with my Python car and love it.

I also have steel brakes. I’ve never had the desire to match a brake caliper to interior color.

I vote for yellow. I like the contrast.

I went with chalk stitching & seat centers and then I did all the trim matching my exterior paint color: Gentian Blue

I appreciate all of the feedback. I am quite torn, but leaning slightly yellow!
