I love cobalt as an exterior and cocoa as an interior but don't think they go too well together. I know somewhere here there are pictures but a quick search didn't turn up anything. I remember thinking before I saw the pictures that it would be an "ideal" combo but after seeing them it changed my mind. IMO if you go with cobalt, stick to black with some cobalt accents. If you go with cocoa, then the silvers and white look great. Good luck and be sure to post pictures eventually.

They were cobalt. I've got a couple not-very-good photos of it if you'd like me to email you. I don't know how to post images.

Cobalt and natural grey is outstanding. Would be my first choice after GT silver/natural grey.

Hi,

If you want to send me your email address, I can send you photos of a Cobalt Blue Boxster S with Cocoa interior that I ordered for a client.

I'm all for color combos, but Cobalt and Cocoa is a little out there, Meteor and Cocoa will be GORGEOUS though!

Another vote for cobalt with natural grey and deviated yellow stitching, cobalt center console, carbon steering wheel, shifter. I saw this on a GT2 a few years ago and it was sick!!! Cobalt + Cocoa = Loco... hahahah

I would say cobalt w/natural brown and black mix with CF trim pieces. Or the same but substitute natural brown for sand. Do the top half of car black, and the bottom brown or sand. That way its not too much of a pretty wild interior.

This is terracotta, but you get the idea:

Talking Custom Interiors

I love anytime I see someone do a custom Interior! It is usually the last thing on a customizers list, and sometimes never gets done
We have a division in Germany that specializes only in doing the custom interiors and they are fantastic! It really makes a difference on a car. Afterall the interior is where you are everytime you drive, so why not make it comfy!
