Interior redone

Well its been too long since I have posted...

As some of you know I got my hands on some Blk PMDs, well they have been donated to my 82ta

Instead I got another set of PMd's froma yard & recovered them using Hawks third gen's hampton vinyl seat covers! Well Bruce did a great job getting me exactly what I wanted...red with black inserts. When people heard I was getting them I had alot of people eager to know of their quality. The fit & quality is outstanding. I can tell soemone took some time to make sure they got the measurements right. Now I istalled them myself, so I made extra sure I got every hog ring tight and in its place. But I could not be happier with the end result! They actually feel more like leather then some of the leather out there! These are not the cheap vinyl you get at teh fabric store. this is the GOOD stuff!

I then got my hands on an all black interior from various cars & got some extra Red Hampton Vinyl from Bruce. I used it to make red inserts for the rear cargo panels & doors...The stuff worked great. It was not hard at all to use to do the covering.

Anyway Finally I got some pics of it all together. Now the pic quality is a bit sorry on the cargo panels...crappy digital camera, but i finally got them up!

Check out the new Floormats too! Car motor sports make a fine product. The stitching (custom designs for me) was so amazing I was floored. They are expensive, but you get your $ worth.

Anyway go take a look!

Shannon,

Great looking interior! Im not a big fan of red interiors but the balance of red and black in yours is very nice. I love the new floor mats and even more the new seat covers.

I saw your car in a picture on the High Performance Pontiac website. There was an article about the S.T.A.R.R.S show or something like that. Congrats on your awards at the show. (they also had a list of the winners).

Keep up the great work!

Bill

Thanks you guys! I have to go check out the HPP site. I, as usual, have not gotten any pictures developed yet from the show. I will be great to snag it for the webpage!

Got it! thanks!

wow! that looks perfect! Very good balance between black and red. The only part i probably would've kept black is the rear seat side plastics. You did an amazing job laying in the vinyl inserts and the seats look very new and plush. Also the red and black interior theme really makes the smoked plexi on the guages look at home. Way to go
