yummm newly re-upholstered seats!
BEFORE
and the graphite interior that is no more :eek2:
Only thing I really need to do is re-adjust the top part of the drivers seat (adjustment is just a little off! I had to take these apart to get them home!) and change the lumbar/lateral support buttons to black.
AFTER
The low down. Converting my interior from graphite to ebony and red to match the exterior!
I also got these from redlinegoods.com, very nice quality. Prolly going to be one of the last thigns installed on my interior tho!

Re: yummm newly re-upholstered seats!
Not bad at all. I'm doing all my own, otherwise I'd be paying a lot more for the covers. I'm basically re-building the factory seats with all new reinforcement for the side-lumbar, leg lumbar, and shoulder boulsters with all new padding and fabric. Basically the only thing I'm keeping are the sliders, and frames.

Looks good. What's the gap between the back and the part your bum is on? Also is that material durable? It kinda looks like it's not. Overall theyre 102 times better than what you had.

Those look good, are they recovered in leather? Or is it vinyl or naugahide (sp?)?

(Sorry for hijacking this thread guys...)
My family and I lived there from 1997 til 2002. I don't remember how long we were in the club, but here's a pic of our cars at one of the shows at the local Chevy dealership (forgot the name of it).
Supposedly, my mom was the owner of the only 35th Anni SS in Midland. I'm not sure how much truth there is to that, but it's what I've heard. It's nice to see someone from Midland on here
. How old are you? I'm 20. I went to Lee High School back when I lived there.
I have a friend there named Steven Tippett who has a metallic green Tiburon that is extremely customized (has trans am style ram air hood and stuff). It looks like something out of pimp my ride. Have you seen it?

Re: yummm newly re-upholstered seats!
Gap is just from a bolt that is in the wrong hole lol. I had to take the seats apart to get them back to my house lol. I just wasn't paying attention! It was late at night and just wanted to get them back together!
