I'm rebuilding an 82 Euro, green opal exterior with brown interior. The brown leather Recaro's are beat up and will require new leather (just had the estimate today). I don't like the colour and want to change all the brown leather to black. I tend to flip flop on my decision. As a purest, the car should be rebuilt to original or as close as possible but I will be driving this car for a while and prefer black. If you had the choice, what would you do?If the colour is changed, how much will it effect resale value?
The carpets are also brown plus a few trim items: the console, rear head rest covers, speaker covers, etc. Over time, I'll either replace these parts in black with either used or new parts or paint over with black.
