Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

personally i would go with all black. you have enough black on your dash, ebrake, shifter that the solid color would go nicely.
also, those seats look quite a bit like the stock EVO IX seats, which are seriously comfortable.
I'd look around a bit for some Porsche sport seats in Savannah Beige. Uncertain what the Racaros would look like. But one thing I do know, your upper and lower consoles would look very good painted Arena Red and the silver gauge bezels would really awsome as well.
That's what I'd do, too. A matter of taste, but in the end I decided that aftermarket seats crossed the line for me to where either the car looked like it was ready for the track (which would make me a poser) or looked too 'tuner' for me. I ended up with Porsche hard-back sport seats.
BTW, if you end up buying a set in the US, ping me if you need shipping suggestions. I stumbled on a competitively priced, miminal-BS solution for shipping big stuff trans-border when I got my seats.
A workable option is to buy the Sports Seat conversion kits. You use your seats and the kits high and winged bolster backs. Looks very good from what I've seen. Do a search and you'll find it, if I had a link I'd post it. The Sports seats are worth every penny, I have them in the Carrera but not the Boxster. One thing stopping me from buying a Turbo, is the Sports Seats are hard to find in a nice car that has everything else you want. (The other things stopping me, is not wanting to get rid of my car, not wanting to part with the cash, and not wanting to squeeze an extra car in the garage.)
One key difference between the Recaros Sports and the EVO version, is that the EVO version has a sprung seat bottom and does not have the thigh support. However, if you have a black interior, the EVO seats are a great bargain--you can find them for well under $1k a pair on eBay.
Fergus, matching a cloth/alcantara fabric exactly to stock leather is a several thousand dollar custom upholstery job. Honestly, if appearance is your first priority, stick with factory sport seats. The benefits of cloth are a) holds you in place much better when cornering hard, and b) much cooler in the summer. No way will they ever look as nice as factory leather, though.
At first I liked the seats you have pictured, but have to agree a solid color would look better especially since you can be pretty sure the tan would not be a perfect match.
I want Porsche sports in Boxster Red. Do they even make them?? That would be sweet.
