I would think it best to paint in actual body color as to match the finish as well as possible.

Very much true about touching the wall. This will not be any trouble regarding space as the material is about 6 mm thick. The issue of scratching the paint / clearcoat is no problem as I believe the seats are in the same position for most of the time. When chaging the seat position you just have to be careful.

I had them primed white to see how it would look and it was a killer in my white srt6 coupe. I have no tint and you could see the from all angles. the SRT6 decal also looked great. To me if I tweak the design and make a final product I guess the will be well fit.
