arm rests on 1988 camaro

I recently purchased a 1988 burgundy Camaro. My question is about the arm rests. Both are peeled back and in need of replacement. Any suggestions other than ordering from factory?

yes, they are a 9 out of 10. They were in my car 3 years ago and the car was in great condition. If you wanna see what they came out of, check my cardomain page. The fist page is what the car was like stock. That is what I took them out. Lemme know if you are interested. Here is a pic I happen to have that I was gonna use on ebay. I try to sell all my stuff to TGo members first. Kinda keeps it in the family, haha.

Well hope I can help. Later

I'm interested. Might be a week or so before I can purchase. I have to pick up the dask I found at the salvage yard before it is gone.

When will your ride be finished? And where are you located?

My ride is shooting for the beggining/middle of this fall. It has been a solid 3 years waiting and I REALLY don't wanna have to wait another winter to finish her up. Everything looks ok so far.

That is fine, I can wait. just keep me updated, as I have got the old "gimme some more time" thing from a lot of guys and then they just diapeare... One of the reasons why I have so much stuff left over

I guess. They are somewhere in my basement. I put them all in labeled bags, but since I have not needed them for a long time I dunno where I last saw them. To the fist guy who is in line. how long do you need. Give me a specific set of days, if not I will sell to the second person in line tomorrow.
