Default Custom door panels (leather)

What do you guys think of custom door panels? Orange (to match the seats) and black (so it's not too crazy) leather maybe?

bad shot of my seats:




And here is little_kulin's door as an example (instead of grey, it would be orange):

Or any other ideas? Maybe just black leather, and orange by the window/lock controls?

those seats are ORANGE!!...seats are really nice..but it would be too much if you put it on the door...put a dark grey suede or leather to match the silverstone..that would look nice

CKNY, do you currently have red leather seats. If so post some pics. I'm dying to see pics of red leather in a Z, preferably CS, but any color really.

i don't have red leather yet - i want to go for a deep red like the m3's... however i think i want to get the door panel done as well... otherwise i think it might look REALLY out of place.
