CUSTOM SEATS

Hey, going to get my seats re-done. Wondering if you could post pictures to give me an idea. I want a two-tone look with red and black since my car is red.
Thanks

Its not that its bad, its just kinda tasteless . Maybe if the gray was black leather, that would be hot, but now it looks like someone took the 80's "to the extreme" . Steering wheel.. well I hope this thing a is a low rider.

That was pretty uncalled for.....Insulting his car.

It may not fit YOUR personal tastes, but that doesn't mean you need to insult it, by "I hope this thing a is a low rider"

The internet has made everyone rude. I seriously doubt you'd walk by it at a car show & say something like that to the owner, directly to his face.

I don't like the seats either.....but they aren't my seats. So as long as the OWNER is happy, more power to him!

I don't like the seats either however I respect his right to do whatever he feels looks good to him. Too each their own.

I originally had those same seats, minus the red.

Re: CUSTOM SEATS

Although not red and black, it's still 2-tone and closely matches my car. I had a local upholstery shop do these for me. He also did the headliner, visors and sail panels. Also had some embroidery done to the headrests.

I'll give you that, it was not my place to be rude and I apologize. The seats do not appeal to me because of your choice of the grey interior and the flamed out steering wheel does not appeal to me either. Looking at the interior however I would guess that this is a show car and with show cars, the sky is the limit.

Actually your entitled to your opinion, honestly I would have said the same thing.

Had those seats been in a random mustang someone found, I guarantee there would have been a public bashing of the owner. The whole attitude would have changed.

Wasn't like you went into the guys thread and bashed his car, this was brought to you. And you didn't bash it, you expressed your opinion so I don't know where that came from.

If someone told me my car looked tasteless It wouldn't bother me because my car is just that.....my car. So who cares?

Hope you don't mind, but I wanted to show how great they look. Best red/black ones I've seen.
