Thats's kind of the route I'm going. i'm going to get black seats and carpet and then call it a day.
A lot of new cars come from the factory half black and half tan. If you pick the right parts to be black and the right parts to leave tan it'll look good.

Mine's two tone, all black from dash and door panels down and the cream colored upper panels and headliner.
You might try shooting what tan you have with black SEM's dye. Do a good enough prep job, take your time and it'll turn out great and never give you any problems. Rush it and skimp on the prep and bet your a$$ your gonna hate life in a few months.
SEM's is available at any local automotive paint supplier. If you have a compressor and a paint gun I would suggest buying the dye in a quart, it's cheaper that way. If you don't have a paint gun, Harbor Freight has cheap gravity feed guns that'll do the job. And if you don't have a compressor, that paint shop should carry what's called a Preval Spay Kit. Basically like a rattle can but has a screw on bottle on the bottom so you can add whatever your shooting in there.
I always wondered and thought about redoing my interior.
Its all black and gray/blue (stock) and was thinking about just getting a new carpet and floor mats in black then geting some nice condition tan leather seats all around and seeing how that looks.
worst come to worst i would put mine back in no problem especially since you can find tan leathers in good shape for next to nothing simply because of the amount of people going all black interiors
the best pic i have is after my wreck unfortunately, but i had black carpet, and i painted the shifter surround black as well. i had tan seats, and it looked good
Remember to take all leftover parts to your parents house. You know they love storing random car crap for you.
