Thanks, I was sure there would be a few that did not care for it. But i guess that's why they make so many different choices, so we all can be happy. I like it and that's what counts.

It is pretty shinny, but it's new leather, I am sure it will fade a little and stretch out some over time. It's kind of cold here, so with some warm weather I believe the leather will stretch and then tighten up a little.

Your interior looks a lot better than mod red! Gives me a couple ideas for my Z06 interior.

Where did you get the mats with blue stitching?

I like it! That said . . .

Is it as shiny as the pics indicate? Just wondering if the flash made them look shinier than they really are.

When (and if) it dulls out some, it'll look really sweet!

Who made them for you? And how did you get such a good match?

The camera's flash makes them look brighter than they are. i got them for mid america, along with the other interior pieces. Not cheap, but less than VE. As for the match, they match my car color perfect. Nassau Blue.....
