ok stuffed around some more, found some hell similar fabric as the xr8, so chucked it on the arm rests.

NICE!

You know you can buy a modern style auto carpet... I think most molded carpet places do it... dark gray would be nice

Then get the seats centres done in the same fabric and the outer parts done in a black version of the original trim

like this ?
