Default Seat Cover?

I am thinking about replacing yhe current covers on my 02 Z. I have been looking at the covers sold by Mid America Motorsports and also APsis. Does anyone have any experiences with either or both companies/products (interior pieces). I know the APsis parts are a bit more in price but it could be woth it. Thanks for any help/advise.

I have an 02 and had Al Knoch Corvette Interiors in El Paso replace the seats. You can design it any way you want it and the service is great. Look them up on the internet. I had a great experience. Also, it did not hurt that I live here.

Well thank you for your replies.

miami993c297, is yours done in the Nappa or GM leather. I have to asume you are quite happy with your interior, as it looks incredible. I have their price list, but its a bit confusing except for the basic parts.

Mr Bill, thank you for the site. Do you have any of their products, if you have how is the quality. The pictures on the site do look very nice.

El Paso Vette, I looked up the web site and it looks like they make some nice stuff. How is the workmanship and materials compared to others?

I don't mind paying a bit more for quality, as it is important to me, as is the appearance. I have also looked into CarSkinz, anyone have any experiance with them?

Thanks again.

Pics are worth a thousand words. I went with Apsis because of the quality of the product and the workmanship. Mine is done in Nappa and Alcantara. I had seen others and to me, Apsis really does produce a better product. Any questions, PM me
