Anyone with black Octagon Half Leather?

If I get my S, it'll have Octagon black half leather until I get some spare cash for the jcw rear leather seats (this will be a long time ). Just wondering how my jcw front leathers will look with the rear Octagons? I've got kaleido half leather at the moment and because it's quite fussy and heavily patterned it looks a bit daft against the jcw's.

Will the Octagon match any better??

I think I've got Octagon (half-leather) in my new JCW... can't remember, only driven it once and don't pick it up for a couple of days yet.

Anyway, whatever it's got, it's very unfussy - the pattern is totally unobtrusive if you ask me. Pretty sure it's Octagon.

The Octagon is very plain indeed, and I don't think it will look at all strange with the JCW seats in the front.

And it's even less fussy in the flesh than it looks in that picture.
