Colours look good and a little more "accenting" like others have said will help tie it together, however the seats look kind of wedged in to me. Especially the drivers side seat bolster looks like it's pressed against the emergecy brake in the second and third last pics. Even the drivers side bolster at the top looks like it's cramped in the 3rd pic.

I guess with every retrofit there are compromises you must accept in order to get the effect you are after.

Agreed now that you mention it and in the bottom left picture the drivers seat looks like it is at an angle? Does the center console open?

Looks great but aren't you going to have to change your handle to black/red now as that isn't terra.

Reminds me of a Ferrari I saw once. Was black with gold and red interior. I thought it was great: represented sex, death and money.

I like it. I do agree with everybody on maybe adding a splash red, else where. I not sure if I like how tight the seats fit, but If you are happy that's all that counts. I think the chrome wheels like pretty good on the black. Now just go and have some fun.
