Default Making New Console Lid Covers.

Have a cracked console lid or just want to personalize it? Here is an alternative to what is being offered. Custom embroidered with our design or yours. Choice of factory or custom colors. Choice of thread color also. Personalize your Corvette even further by adding a Custom Console Lid Cover. We will also be making matching sunvisor covers.

I will be advertising these in the parts section with more info and prices. Please emaill me for more immediate information at
x94406runner@aol.com or PM me here. I am just starting to do these so any input would be appreciated. What options would you like???? Here is a sample picture.

I kind of like the C5 interior. Now if you want to see blah, look at the C6 interior. No character whatsoever IMO.

Thanks guys! I am still working out the details on the visors.
Pricing on the lid covers is 69.95 shipped to your door. Installed will be an extra $15 plus shipping your lid to me. Any custom artwork you want will add an extra 10-20 depending on colors and amount of stitching. If you want your custom interior material matched, you will need to send the leather/vinyl needed for the job(you will get a credit). I hope this helps with the initial questions.

Welcome to the site as a new Vendor

Can you explain the "installation" process for a DIY'er?

I am about 90% sure I would be interested, would have some questions though. Was just getting ready to have something like this done on my own with just the word "CORVETTE" (smaller than in your example) in a particular matching color of yellow-gold Madira thread (to match the rest of my custom embroidered logos that I have had done locally) - no crossed-flags logo though. Definately interested!
