I always see black on tan interior re-dyes using SEM. I was thinking I would much rather paint the poo brown a different color that would go well with tan..looking at this color chart, what color do you guys think would blend well?

well reason why most do black and tan is they look good together , altho i have seen red and black look hot, as well as blue and black, but to get something with tan eghhh

shadow blue?

that way its dark like the black but has a nice hint of color, altho if your car is white, like sig, would then cause people to be like WTF blue?

The black and tan is debatable as far as looks go. I think I have about 2 of the SC's with that combo that I really liked. The others to me seemed out of place. I was thinking palomino or santa fe?

I think to pull the red off, all tan would have to be red and poo brown would have to be a different color similar to the red interiors of the new GTO's and S2000

I do agree with you on this. This is very close to the way I am leaning. I just want an updated classy look without painting a ton of things. Thanks for the picture! Maybe "shale" from above?

Go with a leather like in the King Ranch interior of F150 and F250 trucks. That's a great color and looks nice with pretty much any exterior.
