I have an 02 Z and am looking to replace the seat skins and foam. I've been looking at Ridies and Interior Innovations which seem to have the ability to make what I'm looking for. My question is , has anyone had any past experiences with either of these companies, if so were they good or bad. Thanks.
They are the same company. Ridies is the name they are known for now. I bought 3 different sets of skins from them from synthetic to the most recent in nappa leather and they were all nice quality. I did my own install but that is not for everyone and I have seen where others have had local upholstery shops do the install.
I was looking at getting the Nappa, is it as nice as the make it seem, right now mine are factory. Still in excellent shape wear and tear wise, just want something different. thanks.
I have Ridies leather and alcantara, they are approximately two years old and I do about four thousand miles a year, I'm very happy I had them fitted by a local upholstery shop and the finish is tight and smooth, it's hard to beat the value for money.

I want from synthetic/ alcantra to the nappa/alcantra and the nappa is top notch. I just changed them out in the fall. I designed the pattern and they had it shipped within two weeks which surprised me considering it was custom. I see there are a few others ordering the same style now.
I bought leather seats from Ridies about 6 months ago. The leather is great quality, the color matched well with my Anniversary Edition interior, and the workmanship and fit is great. The seats make a big difference in the appearance of my car.
Good luck!
I have ridies covers. Be sure to read their warranty. I have a very small area on drivers door side bolster where the dye has rubbed off. They warranty for 3 years but not for this issue. My seats have been installed a little less then 2 years.
I installed interior innovations foams and skins over the winter and had a ripped seam witch they replaced rite away, i really like the quality of leather and foam.

Did they get their license from gm to use the c5 logo and lettering or did you buy these used?
I am in love with this picture. The matching color, the vertical yellow lines in the inserts of the seats. The design. Extremely clean interior. Everything is perfect
I don't know what type of leather it is, it's the leather Ridies offers. Not the Nappa or Alcantra. The skins have been in the car for over 2 1/2yrs., and I have yet to have to clean them.

You really have kept your car very nicely.
Thanks
I'm flattered. Thank You!! But you snubbed Tweety. LOL

It is probably genuine leather. We sell very few synthetic leather ones anyway. It cannot be Nappa because we don't have Nappa in yellow.

lol no, didn't mean to ignore Tweety. That adds some character to the car. What if you had Tweety on the headrest instead of Corvette flags? That would be awesome!

I did think of having Tweety on the headrests....BUT, if I ever decided to sell, it could reduce the number of buyers since it's wouldn't be removable.

New seat skins?
