Clazzio seat cover - color question
I would like to get input about the Clazzio seat covers color options:
- I want to get Clazzio PVC seat covers to match the grey of the base model's interior.
- Since most people get black for the Sport model, I was wondering what color would go well with the Base model.
- Should I go with the darker grey or does it fight the rest of the grey interior or would black look better?
- Also, which color would match the OEM armrest best?
I know the custom colors take longer to receive but I'm willing to wait if it looks better in dark grey. I went through the other Clazzio threads and couldn't find any info on this. If anyone has done this or seen this I'd really appreciate the input.

Only the Sport model comes with the OEM driver's side armrest. I'd be getting seat covers for the Base model along with the Honda console armrest and would like the seat covers to match it along with the rest of the interior (the grey interior on the Base model).

There are aftermarket console armrests on ebay for the fit that just snugly sit in or can be screwed into the console rear cupholder. I saved hundreds over what a dealer OEM would cost (about $200 part, about $100 dealer labor.)
Is mine as secure as an OEM that gets bolted to a bracket under the parking brake hardware? No. Can an OEM one be removed in 5 seconds? No. Am I satisfied with the look, operation, ease of assembly, and cost savings by going aftermarket? Definately yes.

Sorry, I miswrote when I said I bought it from eBay, although I saw some there. I got it from Amazon, for $75.95. search for "honda fit center console armrest storage box 09-12", and if more than one comes up it was from seller restylingchrome.
color was listed as black. only problem was came with absolutely NO instructions or diagrams how to put together and install it...but it wasn't hard to figure out once I realized it was very different than the mounting of an OEM armrest. (and simpler.) I'll try to snap some pictures of it in my Fit tomorrow in daylight.
Is it wonderful and "the cat's meow"? No. is it worth saving $125 or $225 over an oem one? In my opinion yes.

If you guys like, there are many other threads discussing armrest pros & cons with pics.
--> Just trying to pull this back to the original topic so I can get some help with the color selection for the Clazzio seat covers. Thanks
