If you like them then get them...don't let what others think make up your mind. Its your car and they aren't paying the note... :lol: Besides if you ask here on the forum then all you are gonna hear is" it it don't increase hp then its rice." :rolleyes:

Nah, don't get them. We of the True Horsepower brotherhood don't pump speed products on our cars unless we're being paid for the ad space. :D

I gues I would have to see them before passing judgement. If they are tastefully done, I see no problem with it :yesnod:

Just going with NOS seat covers doesn't seem ricey to me. Now if you decide you need a NOS sticker on your car that's another story. My sport seats are needing covering and I can't decide if I want to go back with leather or change to Sparco Torino seats

It's only seat covers... you run NOS already.. I don't consider that rice at all. Of course they'd have to fit the vettes seat correctly thou.

Show some pics.... I wanna see what they look like. My girlfriend is so silly. She actually wanted to buy some of those black and flames mats for her car (not a Vette). I talked her out of it. Anyways, I personally like to see Leather or Leatherette on Vettes, not covers.
