Title: interior and top color question
Post by: merrill on September 21, 2006, 07:16:33

So, I am thinking of changing the iterior color of my 230 sl.
it is currently white with a navy interior, navy soft top and hard top.

I am thinking of changing the interior to parchment with mb-2 light tan carpet  there is a photo of this at the gahh  web site below.

the question is,  If I change to the parchment and mb-2 what would be the proper soft top color and hart top color?   for the soft top I understand the head liner color can be a different color as well?

I did look at the mb color code chart on the home page but could not figure out the new color combination

Personally, I would not put a parchment interior in a white car. (or ivory or other off-white color.)  Not enough contrast for my personal taste.  Green, blue, or black car with parchment would be great.
