Need some advice...have a 2006 Z06. Wanting to upgrade interior...seats, door panels, console, etc. Where does one go to get these parts...local specialty upholstery shop, online store??? I don't have a clue. Not wanting to stay stock, something fancy maybe, just not $10grand either. Any pics or ideas are very welcome. Thanks.

I got the seat skins, center console cover, shift boot, and e-brake boot for $650 from Interior Innovations. Had them on my doorstep a week after I ordered them. The stitching on the seat covers they did from a JPEG image I sent them.

Did you use new seat foam as well on all 3 pieces per seat?

I did, and I also used seat rebuild kits on both to protect the seat bottom foam. I have daughters and nieces who love to ride with me so my passenger seat sees a lot of use.
Thanks Ed....looks great. I would have to take my seats to an upholstery shop for skins...I tried one time but gave up. My car came with all black, but I bought black/grey skins and had them put on. Too many pieces...lol.

I should have my custom skins from Interior Innovations on Tuesday & will post pics once installed. The skin removal/install process is that not that difficult at all - it's only 3 pieces per seat (at least on my '12 seats) & removing the seats was a piece of cake. Also check out J-f-customs on eBay for your interior leather needs. I plan to do my dash, radio bezel and interior plastics (doors, etc. ) in leather & the prices are not that bad. I received a sample from him & it was nice quality & the orange stitching was the exact color I was looking for.

I used Interior-innovations twice. The first time was a hassle, but did receive the items.
The second time in 2018 was a horrible experience. Finally canceling my order. I will not bash the company, but I cannot recommend them ether. Good luck.

I'm reserving my judgment until I receive my skins on Tues. I can say the process has not been smooth & their communication has been less than acceptable. My order that was supposed to ship within 3-4 weeks is going on 8 weeks & I was unaware that the skins are made in & shipped from Pakistan. I expected some delay because I have a '12 & they don't make skins for '12 & up, so I had to send them my skins to use for a template. This means my seats have been pulled from my car for 8 weeks & I have been unable to drive it. Now the discounted price they gave me was very good, so I have remained calm on the delay. If there are any issues with the new skins though, I will not be happy.
Also did the centenial OEM leather wrapped steering wheel which had matching stitching with the DSV stuff (this was a great upgrade BTW, for a pre-2012 car)
Also replaced a lot of the plastic pieces (on the doors, etc) with carbon wraps from c7carbon

If yours turn out to be the same quality as mine, I think you'll be very pleased. Mine turned out better than I expected. As you, though, I was a little surprised they were made in Pakistan as I had not been notified of this beforehand. The quality was still good nonetheless.
I bought door and trim leather pieces from JF customs (black with red stitching found on ebay). Console covers, e-brake and shift boot from redline goods. Seat covers from interior innovations. I also had some extra leather from redline that I cut to size and used.
Since I did all the install work myself, the cost was reasonable. The interior used to be cashmere but was tired of that so changed it all out.
Since this photo I have added a custom steering wheel (Carbon fiber/red stitching) from socal garage and custom ebrake handle from RFE design and leather with red stitching around the radio console.
