Pewter- 2000 Camaro SS
It's time to show off your Camaro Seat reupholstering
I'm looking for pictures of reupholstered interiors. I'm very interested in Katzkin and Leatherseats.com products. Please post pics if you have them. I'm leaning toward a 2 tone style. I have nuetral interior seats now but I'm thinking of adding a black insert. What are your opinions and experience with installing.

I'll have to get some pictures up but I have seat covers from LeatherSeats.com. I've been very happy with the customer service and the quality of the seats. Mine are completely black but that's the way I like them.
I've had them probably three years or so now, driving the car all the time through summer, winter, everything. They still look like the day I got them, no wear on the driver's seat or anything. Plus they are much higher quality than anything GM could come out with.

These were custom made, per my sketches, by Jim's Auto Upholstery, in San Diego, CA. Jim's also did the door panels. All materials, except for the piping and embroidery, are vat-dyed leather.

$2,000 for the seats and door panels.
Considering it would have cost me $500 to get a replacement leather front seat cover from GM, I'd say I did pretty well for the price I payed.
As far as the shift knob goes, that particular style has been unobtainable since at least 1998.
It is the knob that came with the Hurst shifter option on the 1996, and early 1997 SS cars. The one shown in the pictures has been restored by me. I had a friend create a metal Hurst "H" logo embossing die. I then obtained leather and recreated the patterns in CAD software - right down to the exact number of needle holes for each pattern section. I also replicated the stitching pattern to match the original cover. For now, I'll keep it as it is.
(Perhaps later, I'll make another cover that has the Hurst "H" emboss stitched with red thread, or go with a red leather "H")
Thanks to all for the compliments
