Smile Interior question

Hi! Newbee here. I just bought my first Infiniti (sigh)...so in love...and thought I'd see if anyone knew the process for changing out the leather. Because it is an 06/light gray, it shows a little wear which I thought would be no big deal, but it's bugging me. I have the titanium gray which to me, is best complimented by black interior. I know this would mean that I'd have to change out the carpet, mats as well. Is there an easier way to do this? Is it even worth it??

I wouldn't mess with it. Don't our seats have "rip zones" where the area is specially designed to RIP apart when the airbags are deployed?

Sounds like you have the "Stone" interior.

Been debating swapping some stuff over to black, but not the entire thing. I've added black floormats and trying to find a graphite center console lid to replace mine with.

But i like the light, open feeling of a light color interior.

Thanks, guys. I appreciate the feedback. I think I'm going to chill out on trying to switch out the seats for a bit and work on other mods first.

Man that will be a lot of work. I would not tackle it unless you have a lot of patience and or money. Better to buy a car with the black interior..............and sell yours........
