Default Diviated Stitch

So if I was to go with Miami Blue exterior and blk leather interior, would speed blue stitching/embroidery work with Miami belts? other than the std red/yellow/grey, I find some of the DS options a bit strange.

Thoughts?

I asked this question in a previous post of mine. Sorry but I don't know how to link my thread here. Someone posted a picture of what speed blue looks like and it isn't close enough to MB that I would say pick it. Of course, this is based off of a picture and cameras may not show the colors accurately so YMMV. I would probably say to stick with the silver deviated stitching or go with yellow stitching.

updated: I think I figured out how to post the link: https://rennlist.com/forums/showthre...errerid=243681

The problem I had with the extended deviated stitching in colors other than red/yellow/silver was that the door pulls would have to be one of those colors and you'd need to go CXX options to color match. I think it was something like $1310 for the door pulls on the GT3/RS to color match.

Thanks, never saw this one. personally I would like to keep the colors down to 3 or less and belts/door pulls should match if your're going to all that trouble.

If you do pick lizard green you can buy the GT3 door pulls from Suncoast.....they also have then in Lava Orange but not sure how would that match orange stitching.

Wondered same but costs just seemed to mount quickly and I gave up. I liked Idea of going MB paint then having MB stitching, MB break calipers, MB seat belts; end up with 2 colors only. TechArt seems to be able to do this. Keep meaning to reach out to them and ask.

Just emailed tech art to see about pricing. Maybe this is just going down a rabbit hole and I should keep things stock!
