black or gray velour (cloth) interior?

I am debating whether to get a black or gray velour interior on a reflex silver car (2004 Jetta GLS). Any suggestions? I am concerned that black might make the interior too hot and catch too much lint, and that the gray will be harder to clean and that it will be two-toned (black and gray). I'm not sure if I like the two-toned look. Thanks.

two toned would look ok if the rest of the interior matches,, if your dash is all gray then consider painting some of it or just go with one solid color, if the seats are the only thing two-toned it will look stupid, like those gay racing seat covers they sell at pepboys.

i wouldnt use velour it fades real fast, are you redoing your seat to look custom or to repair a rip or something?

No, I'm considering getting a new 2004 GLS. I was thinking of getting velour rather than leather because I'm scared that the leather will crack with the hot and cold weather of Colorado.

ok no the leather shouldnt crack as long as you take care of it you sould also tint your windows this will also help

factory cloth seats are nice also they will not fade to fast .i thought you where talking about velour fabric(aftermarket)
