Red or Blue???

Hi ppl... I'm considering painting and covering bits of my interior like the centre console, instrument surround and a few other bits... The question however is what colour to do it in... My car is Red which won't be changing... I have finally worked out that when I get it resprayed, it'll still be the same sort of red... But, my new bucket seat and my harness pads are blue... I want the interior to match but I also want it to go with the colour (Red) of the car...
So yeah... Red or Blue???
Has anyone seen a red car with a blue interior at all??? I havn't and I want to try and find some pics of a car that has the same scheme...
If you find pics or have any, please post them here...
Thanks in advance, Ben...

In my opinion when your sitting in the car.....the colour of the extrior of the car doesnt really come into play at all...
sure it may look good at certain angles from outside ....but for the most part youd want it to go well with other interior bits
so i say blue
but i would have said blue anyway cause i love blue regardless of the above dribble..

yep go for blue it will look a lot better than having red with blue seats. As long as its not dark blue. I have seen a blue car with a red interiour and it looked good so it should look good the other way around

Go for blue!
My Ford is red and I have bright blue seat covers and it looks great! Having a red car with red seats would be too much I reckon!

do it yellow... then you have all bases covered
then all u'd have to do would be get green carpet
i have this dark grey blue metallic colour... some one called it gun metal grey... i thought guns where a charcoal colour...anyways ive done accessorising in blue
- dial surrounds, centre console and this strip camry's have are all holden cyan blue
- blue steering wheel (its a cover... im poor)
- blue/black gear knob
- blue wipers
some would call this rice, but i dont think this makes my car faster, just different to every other camry around.

I'd have to say go the blue.
Keep the colour scheme the same for the interior.
Hey, you could always paint your car blue later anyway!!

I dont think making your car look better is rice as long as its tastefull
wank things like snowplows and big f**k off wings are rice
I mean.....would u call a paintjob rice ??? it doesnt make your car faster yet its to make your car look better
End rant
I just hate it when ppl will call anything rice thats got to do with making your car look better

see the supra in my avatar... if that was an NA Supra, would you call that snow plough of a front bar Rice ? yes probably
If it was a twin turbo supra, you would probably say that front bar is for down force and not ricey..
Make up ur mind mate..
U get so worked up its as if your car is ricey and u are defending it ?!

Wow... So many responses... Thanks ppl... Muchly appreciated...
The seat and the harness pads are a light blue so I'll continue with that colour... I would never have thought of doing a dark blue...
I just thought aswell... My stereo is Alpine and their main colour is blue too... So looks like the CCFL globes will have a nice time in there too... They will be to brighten things up a bit...

purple.. its a combination of both and it would definitely relect your current relationship status.. 
mate.. just you wait to see what i do with the ugly rolla and then the celica ben.... you might be surprised.
I dont care if people call putting neon lights, CCFL higlights, re-illuminated dashes, bucket seats, coloured dash and iinterior, re-trimmed and built out doors etc RICE... for me its just making my car more to my own liking.

To avoid rice take
1. Small block or big block Chevy
2. Mix with either a) plymouth b) Impala c) cadillac
Must have at least 1.5 metres of over hang at both ends....Enjoy!
