Assuming we don't get snowed on tonight, I'm driving the X1/9 to the local trim shop for new seat covers tomorrow. Not sure what I'm going with - just some subtle gray and black motif, or if I play up the bright green on the interior, either in a big way or just some green piping. Thoughts?

I like #1 one for the "I like green" look. #3 is the winner for the subtle look.
#2 is too much and #4 I don't think works with the new paint.

#3 is growing on me, but I could see #1 also. Concur that the black/gray is too understated. And #2, well, it's a lot of green.

I like #3 but only if they leave the "Jeep" off the headrest part of the seats! Snow? It actually snows down there?

#3 definitely, sans the Jeep logo. You could replace that log with a X1/9, that would be cool since most won't know what it means. They'll think it's algebra

Going to throw a curve ball here and say how about black seats, green stitching, NO piping? I feel like the car is very green as it is.. I'm honestly going to be the lone vote for #4 overall if you need to give a reference to your upholstery guy.
