Red interiors

Classic red is no longer available for 25, saw the pepper red today, it is amazing. More like coral red with touch of orange. The bad news is that it will not fit the red seat belts. Attached photos of both colors in SL.

Agree with the looks, I wonder if MB wants to give more contrast by not allowing red seatbelts. That said, I wonder if we can "paint?" the seatbelts or something to red by ourselves?

Good question
I have black seat belts on mine and also wondering if they can be painted durably? Or buy a beee set from MB if there’s a part number? Mine is 2022

I heard you have to recode the seatbelts and might even affect the airbag (system, control module?) and the Pre-Safe system if you were to change it entirely, if there is a way to paint it, it would be the cheapest way.

Am I the only who thinks the Red Pepper interior is very striking? As in, arguably too striking? I really love how bold it is… but I also really hate how bold it is. It’s so nice to look at, but I just cannot see myself ever speccing one or buying a vehicle with it (at least not without two-tone contrast).

I do have to question the criticism that see users calling it a “Brothel interior” or (especially when paired with yellow) the “Ronald McDonald Spec/Clown House Furnishings.” I have seen (possibly legitimate) descriptions of the W463 as a “bouncy castle,” but I feel these are something else.

So you like a more muted red? I guess I understand, wish MB offered two different shades.

I’m also not a fan of the classic red but I’m sure there is someone out there who loves it! My favorite combo so far is China blue with the black/yacht blue interior.
