    Option #2 because it's close to what I went with!( Dark graphite/red stitching) If I wanted embroidery on mine I had to get a letter of permission from my dealership before they would do it. So I said screw the embroidery. Although I might get the headrests or door panels done locally.

    ^That was a Issue my guy had but he got around it. Katzkin wouldn't do it but he was able to take the Katzkin Leather piece to all I want stitched and got it elsewhere with my custom measurements. He got it done and brought it back to get it sewn up. The logo looks factory and not some off measurement junk....Looks like the the Hilux TRD version...

    ^ Aww man. You can Stitch in the TRD in the headrest. No pics as he brought me the pieces to show that got TRDed. They're @ Katzkin now in Montebello,CA. awaiting for me to finalize my choice. Then I will get it back in 5-7 days after install.

    Here is my TRD Emblem Leather Headrest.

    Are the headrests in your other thread part of the new leather?

    Its the HEADREST that started my Addiction for full leather. Yes, it was an Inspiration to the rest of the Interior. :D

    The Door Panel Armrest will be removed for Black Leather w/Red Stitching.

    The Center Console is getting Redone too.

    2. All Black Leather w/Black Perforated Leather & Red Contrast Stitching.

    I'm thinking you need to be careful not to overdue the interior with a third color (red)because you will already have two primary colors working in in the interior (OE gray and the black leather). I'd use the red as a highlight only. What this would mean to me is when you look into the truck, what you see is basically gray/black. The red highlights tie the interior to the exterior color (stitching, the TRD lettering on the seats, etc.). What would be cool (and expensive) is using using interior dyes / paint to change all the OE gray to black so that you really have two colors working (black and red).

    Anytime you need help spending your cash, let me know!
