Leather-ish Seat Covers [Reupholstered]
 
Alright, well luck has come my way. A couple weeks ago I applied for a loan to cover the cost of my college classes this semester (if you guys remember in the income tax thread, I said I had to use it to pay for the classes since my financial aid got revoked) well now that I got the loan approved and such, my dad said I could use my income taxes to reupholster my front seats with leather. The seatcovers I have now are bleaching out where the sun hits them, so I want to reupholster my seats and do it right. Does anyone know of any good companies to go with?

I already emailed leatherseats.com asking how much it would be for only the two front seats, mentioned Chad's name and ProjectCamaro.com, but apparently Chad they don't like you as much as you thought, as they haven't responded to my email yet and it's been 24 hours or so. :nana:

Does anyone know of any other companies that are good to go with? I wish I had a little more cash, I'm limited to a maximum of $500 to spend.

That hurts. ;)

I've heard good things about Katskins.

Sweet what are you goin to do with the back ones?

katzkin.com rocks!! A little pricey, but they will make anything you need or want for your seats. They have been featured on "Overhaulin" numerous times.

Yeah, I think the seat covers are only 399. This is the place I got my t tops conversion from. They had them on ebay. Any time I've delt with them they are super quick to respond, shipping was really fast. They sold me on their products and service.

katskin is a great company, and actually makes their stuff themselves

So far the only one to reply to my email is Hawks. $299.99 + $25 shipping.

You might as well put in another 100 and get the rears too..

I'm doing the rear seat delete in my car this spring, if you're willing to pay shipping I'll cut you a great deal on the rear seats. They're all black but they still look good.

Well, I really don't need the backseats though. I want it to be like a roadster and do a cool sub rack for the backseat. I was thinking about taking the design of the wooden boxes that are covered in carpet and sit where the rear seats do but taking it a step further and using a hinge and a longer piece of wood that would go at like a 45 degree angle from where the seats were and goes up to the rear deck surface.

Technically a roadster is a car with 2 seats AND no roof... :nana:

meissen 02-08-2006 11:53 PM

Roadster hardtop? :P

archemedes 02-09-2006 02:04 PM
