What you guys think about my seats. Almost done they are not finished just set over the foam not pinned or fully sewn. Painted the seat backs black and the new gray carpet kit with new black paint, man she is looking good

Wow! I gather you are making or having these covers made special??? At some point, maybe next winter's project, I will be interested in covering my seats with a two-tone combo. If my seats came out looking as good as yours, well...Wow!:thumbsup:

Thanks guys, I been hiking the Grand Canyon for the last week, I had them custom made, we took the old covers apart as a pattern so other than the two tone they are the same. So trying to get the rest of the car done the little stuff takes for ever

LMAO thats a good one for sure, foot note the new foam that I got from Ecklers firmed up the seats nice. Well worth the money to get rid of the 20 year old sag :cheers::cheers:

Not a big fan of two tone seats, but the quality looks very good, and if it is your taste :thumbsup: to you.

If you don't mind me asking, some Qs?
Can you tell us who did your covers
I assume your covers are leather, but in any case, leather is what I'm interested in. So, my question would be do they do leather seat covers too?
Cost...always the cost question...Cost for a two tone job, that is. (Thinking black bolsters with red inner section(s).)
TIA
Oh, did I mention yours look terrific!?

The company I use is RDI Interiors in Lakeland, FL call Rob DiNicolantonio 863-619-2750. I have used him for years to do the interiors in my customers aircraft & whatever I drag in boats, cars etc.
They are a small custom shop that their main line of work is aircraft interiors but with the slow economy they will do custom work for auto. They also did the paint work.
\
I rather you call Rob and discuss the price. I will say it was very competitive with the prices I seen on the net.
They are 100% leather and the price can depend on the color of the hides. He has a large selection of hides that are left over from Jet Projects so you can save some money. They use lots of gray, black, tan & cream hides in Jets.
I have better pics when we get the car out of the shop, that was just phone pics.
Thanks again

The co. that re-done these seats for Wayne do some amazing quality work. The stitching is perfectly straight. I'm in the middle of overhauling a Late Model Lamborghini and pulled the entire interior out of the car to have them re trim. They are doing every single piece of leather for me. The dash, seats, door panels etc. I had them provide me a sample piece of the work and it's better than what the factory supplied, Price is OK, but not cheap.
Rob is going to drop off my Dash on Friday and i'll take some pictures, i'm also going to give him a couple side bolsters in black and flame red to see of he can make these in exact colours.

I like the two tone look! How is the new carpet kit? Did it actually fit well? where did you purchase it?
... been a while since I've posted. Kind of hard down here in southern Afghan! Good to be back connected again though.

Carpet kit fit was fine got it from Mid America, however they have changed the trim to a bright silver :neutral: the rug is perfect match. Also did not come with rear speaker grill pieces. Thanks :cheers: Keep your head down from a ole 101st guy. :hello:

I always been hesitant about the carpet kets from the major manufacturers. Glad to hear that it went well!
