Default DS Vettes Rocks!!! Seats are in and look GOOD!!

Here are the pics I promised Gerardo and Lino once the seats are in. If you are even thinking about getting interior pieces to spice up the interior, you cannot go wrong with DS Vettes. Very professional, customer service what you would expect from a Forum Vendor. Oh, and the smell of that new leather, man.

Enjoy!!

Looks great! Can you post a close-up pic of the embroidery? I can't see what it's supposed to be.

It's a Stargate SG-1 logo that I had put on the leather. DS Vettes did NOT do that.

Seats look awesome...I've been waiting to see them.

Did you have the install shop do anything to the foam padding, to help w/ firming them up ?

Did you actually ask for that kind of stitching? That ruined the entire look for me. I know they are not, but that stitching makes them look cheap and done by a rookie. I know that is not what you wanted to hear, but it is my opinion.

Baseball stitching is certainly unique on auto seats..............but NOT as unique as a Stargate SG1 Emblem on the headrest!!

WTF ? Looks like you are the only one who doesn't like the seats.

Maybe you just have bad taste or you are just rude.

Also glad I did not pay for them and they are not in MY car!

Saying you do not like something is not being rude, it is just being honest. If the OP likes them, then that is all that matters.

I do like the baseball stitching. I wanted something really different (as though the SG1 logo wasn't different enough!).

Swiftrider - no big deal. I understand people have different tastes. I really wanted something to be different from the norm, a conversation piece so to speak. We could talk about how you don't like them and I like them over a couple of beers or (I would prefer) a couple of Glenmorangie on the rocks!!
