How about stock or custom leather and custom interior paint. I think you'd like that better and it really ties the car together. Here is mine and I'm sure others will post.

The only "essentials" to a Vette interior IMHO are Lloyd's floormats, a waterfall emblem (if you have a coupe or Z) and a data plate for the bland cigarette lighter door. Anything else would be over doing it.
