I replaced the door panels, glove box, and knee bolster with GM parts. They are from a wrecked '01 Z06 with mod red interior.

These aren't that bad new either. Here are the prices that I got from Fred Beans

Door panels
373.17 for one
383.99 for the other
(I didn't get which side is what price)

LH Knee bolster 57.80
Glove Box 132.51
Glove Box Latch 21.xx

Now I want to add red inserts into the sport seats.

I think it looks good, why would you say that?

I guess I can say "Asian guy from 2 Fast 2 Furious called, wants his car back." about yours... but I will refrain!
