Did you have a kit in mind for this or a custom shop to do the conversion? It sounds like you have the black and red leather interior already and sadly we cannot take advantage of any aftermarket leather interior kits that I know of (Katzkin and Classic Soft Trim don't help us here). What color is the exterior of the car?
Nevermind... I would say find some nice 18" rims to replace those AT rims, but that's just me.

Do you find the seats comfortable? It all depends on your goals and what you want. If you want seats that are pink and black, by all means go for it! I didn't see pink on the Classic Soft Trim homepage, but I believe Katzkin has pink as a leather color. I can't seem to find any patterns from Katzkin and I don't really feel like digging around too much, but I seem to remember them stocking the door trim pieces in the matching two tone (in your case pink I would imagine) leather color. Personally I would also stick to the color scheme and possibly order a custom shift boot in black and pink (if the AT car has one that is...) check out Shiftstyle. I believe there was someone making arm rest leather covers that you could pick the colors for as well, but I can't remember who. Last thing I would personally do to a two tone custom leather interior would be to match the stitching to the other color (if that is not a standard thing).

One thing at a time man damn! But I agree, pink color-matched powder coated rims are a must... You coule probably pick up some stock 18s used on the FS forum, since the powder coating can be pretty pricey and you can get any imperfections out of them at the same time.
If you do the interior though, you'll have to post pics of it, I'm pretty curious about how it will look.
Just tossing this out there, pink ghost flames
