Question GT3 Seat Color Help!

I recieved my GT3 seat today and was told it was the light grey but it is really dark. The 2 grey colors listed are Space Grey and Graphite Grey. Anyone have a picture of one or both of these colors? Thanks!!

my understanding is that unless you get a custom leather order, then the greys available on the GT3 seats will not match 993 interiors (they are 996 grey and are darker than the 993 grey interiors)...IMHO it would be easier to go with a two-tone grey/black interior (I did similar...tan/black)

Thanks, I know that I could not get an exact match but I wanted a light grey and the seat is real dark. My interior is blue/grey so I guess it will be tri-tone!

I'm sitting here looking at a big carpet sample brochure, and Space Gray looks a lot like Rubicon gray to me. While Graphite Gray looks a lot like Classic gray, but it seems a bit darker. I.e. Space gray seems to have a purple hue and wouldn't look right in a classic gray interior.

Unfortunately, the colors on this online swatch card don't look anything like they do in person:
