Bump to the top - this is a great deal on the best interior products ever developed for the C5. Top flight service and top flight product!

If it's quality that you seek - look no further than VE!

Hey Matt or Sandy!

Did you guys ever get more carbon fiber look material? I still need a couple of items and my interior is sort of half-n-half. I'd *like* to get the new stuff in carbon (and even a few old parts redone).

Thanks ~

DT

If you are on the fence about upgrading your interior and want the best, this is a fantastic offer. I never regretted for a minute spending the money on a VE interior.

I have upgraded with all the trim pieces on my black interior. Money well spent. Also, if the covering on the door near the armrest is starting to separate, thier arm rests will hide it; great upgrade.

Can I assume this offer does not include your Classic C5 Corvette Engine Covers (I know, I know, they are not made from leather)?

Yes, they are sharp, did you paint yours Randy? Would they need "hi-temp" paint???

Matt/Sandy.
I'm still trying to get my shift **** and brake handle correct. You sent me the correct boots (Black, with yellow stitching) but the wrong ***** (They are black with black stiching). Do you want me to send the ones I have back to you and you can re-do them? Please let me know.

As promised, here are pics of the VE seats I have. Everything else that has been done is black leather with yellow stitching. The area around the halos has tightened up since these pics. I have also done the e brake handle/boot, shift ****/boot, door pulls/armrests, and steering wheel (way better than anyother company i have seen). Enjoy

Matt had them done for me in Pewter with black letters to match the rest of my underhood. Here's a pic....



I don't think they're painted with high temp paint.....find out how much more to have them done the way you want them. I'm very happy with the way they came out!
