C5 Interior........choices?
So, I have this dilemma. I love Corvettes, but the problem I have is........the interior is sort of bland. No offense to the people out there with stock interiors, but I just don't like it. So, My friends have told me I have 2 choices to revitalize it.
1. Wood trim + custom leather
2. Custom leather all-round
Or should It be left stock?
NOTE: I don't own a Corvette myself, I just LOVE them.

Wood trim 
Most likely you'll need a flame suit when others comment on this option
Custom requires $$ to $$$$. However - it can sure make the interior.
Many will post pics - here are some of mine (note - these are old ones contained on the Forum pic site - PhotoBucket were the newer ones reside is 'down' for service this am):
UPDATED (Photo Bucket is back on line):
These interiors are from VetteEssentials (a Forum Vendor)

If you want to spend an arm and a leg an all leather Caravaggio interior is the way to go. I wish that I had the money for that. It makes it look European but it is top quality and looks fantastic. 
The colors are nice too, but again it will kind of look like a lambo on the inside. Or you could always go with a nice mix of leather and carbon fiber.

I say leave the wood trim in the Caddys. Either upgrade the leather, some nice kits out there as seen above or leave it alone. I actually like the stock interior. I don't know what the fuss is about with people saying the interior is crap in these things.
