Default interior color

As I slowly work on my car and figure out what direction to take it performance wise, I realize I've got plenty I could do to the interior too. As always, money is a concern so doing it twice doesn't sound appealing. I'll most likely stick to a stock style interior with maybe custom door panels, certainly nothing fancy though. Seats I'm working on and am pretty set on Recaros. I really have no idea what color to go with or colors really and that's my major concern. Currently, the car is dark blue with a tan interior. It will remain dark blue if/when it gets repainted. I realize it's very subjective but does anyone have a suggestion for what color(s) they think look good on dark blue cars? I've thought about keeping the seats black. I'm assuming any seats I get will have to be recovered and black seats should match ok with other colors. Also, new seat belts are readily available in black where as tan is not easy or cheap to get. So yeah, suggestions and opinions welcome.

I've considered blood red simply because I've always thought the Grand Sport vettes looked good in that combination and I actually don't like most reds. I'd have to break it up somehow though.

Thanks
