Interior enhancement concerns
I would like to add leather wraps to the door handles, passenger handlebar, as well as getting a new shift boot/**** and e-brake boot. I know Vette Essentials is the place to get anything leather for a Corvette.
But what about the one's that WCC sells? One thing I'm a little suspect on is the door handle and passenger handlebar wraps are velcroed together. Is that how Vette Essentials pieces are held together?
Does anyone have the "other" brand and is happy with it?

I know the Vette Essentials Door Pulls are leather covered, not velcro covers. You can buy them outright, or send back your stock one for a core charge reimbursement. I can't comment about quality of the covers offered by WCC. But you won't be disappointed with Vette Essentials!

The Vette Essentials door pulls are stitched together and are a direct replacement.
They are defiantly top of the line, as is everything else from V.E...

It depends on what you want to spend. I went with the velco wrapped ones and like them. They are not as nice as the stitched ones from VE but they were 1/4 the cost. So you decide on what they are worth to you. I got mine from RED LINE for a very nice price, check them out and do what you want, it's your vette!
