New seats for 94 Z

So my drivers side seat is officially gone to hell..... the bolster is ripped completely open. It started small and now its just too big not to do something about.

My question:
What should I do.... buy a seat from a crashed camaro or replace the seats all together?

I thought about buying racing seats but I never really liked that look. I have a grey/graphite cloth interior so I figure racing seats wont really look right.

My other thought was to buy seats from a different type of car, maybe porsche seats or bmw seats or something like that. My hesitations with that are first and foremost whether they would fit or not. My second hesitation is the thought that its a betrayal to my camaro to put parts from another car in it at all.

My fall back option is to just get a replacement but I have no idea where to get it from without buying a whole interior.

Any help, ideas, or anything at all to get my wheels (in my brain) turning would be great.

Well, you could go with custom leather if that is your style.

A few people here, including myself have purchased from

www.leatherseats.com .

You can get the seats done any color(s) you want, even with embroidery.

Another site you could look at is www.autoleathers.com

Both are pretty comprehensive with good customer service...

You can see pics of my interior on my website (link in the sig).

These, by the way, are custom covers that replace your existing covers. In other words, you use your existing seats, rip off the old cloth and install the nice new leather...

Just so there isn't any confusion..

Mine was gone to, found a real good upholstery shop and they were able to fix it. They remove the bolster from the seat and sew in another one. Looks Great and original
