Default New Interior

Decided to stay with my C6 instead of getting a C7, so some changes had to be made.

Before:





After:






Not a perfect job, but I am satisfied. New foam bottoms with seat kits. Basically a daily driver and not a show queen by any means. Oh, and I swapped my Core-Hurst shifter for a MGW.

Looks good. A day in the summer sun will help remove the wrinkles.

Looks good - where did you get the seat skins?

It does look good. I left mine out in the sun a couple of days in a row, and the wrinkles disappeared.

Thanks everyone. I got the skins through Ridies. I was trying to communicate through Interior Innovation via email and wasn't getting anywhere so I called the number on their site which pointed to Ridies. Once concern I have about the seats...the velcro for the seams is terrible. Doesn't stick at all to new seat foam. I even went to an upholstery shop and they tried glue to help it adhere.

I changed my seat covers twice (due to color change). The second time, the velcro on the seats wouldn't hold. Thankfully, I had some upholstery glue left over and that did the job.

Leather cup holder cover...? Tell the truth, you did that for the ladies didn't you?

(please say yes, I'm harvesting leather from the sofa right now).

Looks really nice, especially the new shifter.
