Added a Little Interior Bling
Got tired of my sheepskin seat covers and the plain look of the original Black leather seats, so I did a little upgrading. The center armrest is next. The color is Silver to match the stripes, but looks White in the pix.

No, I wish. Got them from LeatherSeats.com in Oklahoma City at a very good price.

Seats look great!
I got mine Thursday and we'll be installing them next weekend. Just about opposite of yours. I had them do white stitching to match my white top.

Very, Very nice mod. It really enhances the car. But, please don't say "bling." That reminds me of a Honda Civic with everything done in chrome.
Great looking car!

Had Cash Upholstery in Carrollton, TX do it. After reading the Vette Essentials installation write up, I decided that wasn't for me. Getting lazy in my old age.

I don't like the word "bling" either, sounds like something from "Pimp My Ride", but EG uses it, so it must be proper English.
