Anyone use Katskinz interior???
One nag I have about corrvettes in general is the cheap leather Chevy uses. All the C5's I have looked at whether it was 15K or 55K have cracks in it. I went to leatherseats.com and they make a kit for both the standard and sport seats. I have used this company on 3 of my Stealth/3000GT's and love the look. I was wondering if anyone else had this installed.

Right on thanks my friend. I can't seem to get Photobucket to work with me this morning and assumed it was down. Guess its me, but yeah that was the plan 
I have my heart on a Mill. Yellow 00-01 but thinking silver and the same colors I used on my VR4 would just be stunning. I love that interior.

Katsskin
My son has an 02 Camaro and he just put Katskin leather in his car and it is beautiful-You might want to get the gathered look. I the the middle of the seat the leather is all bunched up and the rest is slick.It looks really good.

That place is amazing but not sure I want to pay $5K for interior. you figure its roughly $4K for everything and another $700 to install. For $1K I'll use the Katskinz and be happy. Glad to see there are other options out there though.
