I swapped out an interior for one of my customers removing the black/red trim and replaced with dark green seats, door cards, and green carpets. His exterior was British racing green, and it looked great. I would stay away from cream colors and light color carpets, unless you want to cover them all up with mats when driving as they will get dirty pretty fast.

my mini has the oval speedo in the center so I would need a color for the dash trims and door panels and carpets as well as seats.

the exterior color is Almond Green and I was thinking of dark green leather seats to contrast with the exterior.

Any suggestions/advice would be greatly appreciated and I would eventually start posting pics too.

It would be helpful to share the year of your mini. Thanks!
