Default New Interior Pieces for the C5

Installed a C6 Z06 shifter last week and needed a custom shift boot. (stock doesn't fit unless you cut the neck)
For less than 100$ shipped, I consulted with the owner, customized, ordered, and received a shift boot, arm rest cover, and e-brake cover in about three days. Made in the USA!

Auger Resources :http://www.augerresources.com/c5.htm
Went with black leather and black suede(and light grey stitching). Matches up to the suede type material on the lower sides of each seat well. Flash was not kind to the suede - but I will take more pics in the sunlight with no flash later this week.

Brushed aluminum interior from Superior Interiors goes in soon as well.

I agree-
Figured at that price, I could take the chance on them being junk and not feel too bad.
But I am very impressed. Quality workmanship. Incredible customer service. And at the prices, I can order a few diff. sets and change the int. from subtle to wild every few weeks if Im hitting car shows.



And mine was the first C5/C6 Z06 hybrid shift boot they ever made!

Nice looking stuff. Nicer looking prices!!! I just asked if he'd do "package" pricing for buying it all. I'll post what I find out. Thanks!

it never hurts to ask - and YES< very likely they will throw in a piece for free when ordering several pieces.

Yes, per web site, and email, trim piece is free when buying complete set. Just ordered. For $100 how can you go wrong?!?

Now, need to get back to that warm weather.........

Thanks for passing this lead along!

Just to be 100% clear, this stuff is NOT real leather....... "all synthetic material...." still, for the price......

yes, its synthetic.
Folks who want all leather, I suggest going thru Vette Essentials. Its the best stuff out there.

But for the budget minded Vette owner, I think this synthetic is the route to go.(my 2 cents)
