Cool Pics of "SS" Embroidered Leather Seats

Ok Guys here are some pics of my leather seats with custom "SS" embroidery. I think it looks and helps add a little flair to the drab Camaro interior.

I have been jealous of the T/A guys with their embroidered removable headrests, but after seeing the stitching in the HOTROD Berger cars in person I knew that someone would be able to stitch my full Camaro seat covers. Since I only have 5000 mi on my '98 the seats are still in great shape so I didn't want to go out and buy a set of T/A seats just for embroidery.

The work was done by Bob AKA 1BADBIRD and they look even better in person as the stitching is a quality job IMO. He can do the SS in any color combination you would like, i.e. Black center with Silver outline (like mine), White center with a Red outline, etc. Click here to visit his site.

Looks great! I never noticed that camaros didn't have removable headreast. I guess you learn something every day.

Thanks for the compliments Guys! I thought you might like them.

I Paid $85 to have mine done, but e-mail Bob to see if there are any return shipping charges as the seat covers are much larger then the head rest covers most people ship him.

I just had my head rests done this past week. They should arrive tomorrow. If anyone else is interested in having theirs done look up Dan's Am over at LS1.com He did mine for $50 shipped.

They look great! But what about the "circle" that you can see around the SS. Does that go away or what? I thought about getting mine done but I'm not too crazy about the circle that is left around the stitching.

My understanding is that the circle comes from the embroidery machine clamp that holds the leather down.

It's not permanant, eventually goes away.
