Need Advice re seat covers

I have just joined this forum & this is my first post.

I have a 2010 Mini Cooper convertible, midnight black with white bonnet stripes. I also have blackjack door handles, side scuttle markers (with white light) & rearview mirror. I have the base leatherette heated seats but am looking at getting some wet okole seat covers because the leatherette gets way too hot in the summer. My question: what colour?? I was thinking tan & black or mocha & black but think that may be a little too boring. I have seen the pics of the red & black seats on the red convertible love how flashy they look. Maybe boring is good... Any advice appreciated.

flashy is OK for seat covers because you can always change them out if you need to later. Cost wise it is much cheaper than new seats! We are looking for covers as well to prevent burning the buns on our black leatherette seats. We're starting out with the simple slip over covers that look like towels until we decide on a more permanent solution.

I think I have decided on the light grey seat covers from wet okole. I figured with all the black, white & silver in the blackjack accessories, it will look pretty good. I guess I am boring!

You could get grey hibiscus which would add nicely
