Default Should I be shot?

I'm looking at recovering my seats with vinyl instead of leather. Couple of reasons why. I think vinyl will give a more smooth look to the seats, the colors that I want are not bright enough for leather, temperature and last, but not the most important, price. WAY to much to be done to get back to stock form and I like to be different, but not gaudy. Should I be shot or should I go for it? Thanks, :flag

:iagree: , but leather will breath better than vinyl. A little less sweat is worth it to me.

No, really, it is newer. I have an '80 and you have a '70. That makes my car newer than yours. No :bs . Do the math, duh :lol: :flag
