New seatskins!
Just got back from Detroit (22 degrees below zero on Friday night) where Vette Essentials (Matt) converted my black standard seats to the sport seats pictured below! I was trying to brighten up the interior. Mission accomplished!

I have a very good camera, thank you. I just set it a 5 megapixil in Detroit so I could take lot's of pictures (auto show, snow, the city from floor 68 of the Renissance ctr) til I bought a SM card. Thank's for reminding me, I'll put it back on ten. Plus, I'm the world's worst photographer.
Glad everyone approves of my seats! Wish i could get rid of the old (30k miles on driver, 0 on passenger) black standard seatskins.
Next project-Gotta do something with that stock Blows stereo...

Matt at VE told me that this is the first time he ever did this color combo (blk/pewter w/red stitch and the first time he did a perforated thigh support. Thanks for the kudos!

Pewter is metallic gray but has a hint of brown in it in certain lighting. That's true with the car color (see sig) and the leather.
Matt gave me a hell of a deal. Call him and he'll make you a deal too, and provide samples. Business is slow and cash is king!
I got the covers custom made, new foam, sport seat conversion, custom matching arm rests (a $125 value) and installation for one low, low price. It's motor city man, they're hurting. Good luck and tell em John sent you.. Vette Essentials rocks!
It'll be a while before I can enjoy them as I just had surgery and can't drive stick for two months. Anyway I want upgrade my sound system next.
Installation was one day, probably only a couple hours. They are pros.
