GAUGING INTERESTS-mail order upholstery
hey i was wanting to gauge some interest:
ok first off im not selling anything at the moment nor plan to on this forum until i or if i became a sponsor....all im doing is tryin to see if there would be a market in this for the fbody guys-- SO PLEASE MODS DONT FREAK OUT ON ME PLEASE
so i know that the seats in these cars whether a 95 or even some 01s is beginning to show wear or destroyed
so i am going to offer a reasonable solution that has some custom options without breaking the bank...i have seen many kits out there and they are all priced way to high in my opinion
so heres my plan however i would not need you to actually send your seats in i am trying to find some good patterns...but if u could pull off your cover and send it to me i can gurantee u a better fit.....one of the big debates in the earlier post was the french seam which i was gonna leave out to save the consumer money.....but i just found a nice durkop adler high post double needle that will allow me to do the french seam on a finished cover in 5min or less
before i start this up because a thread from earlier this year sparks a couple mails a month i need to know a couple of things.
how many people would be interested in these?
what options would u want?
what colors would i need to make these in?
and what do u the consumer think is a fair shipped price?

shipping just the cover is all i would need its a no brainer to install the seat covers...steam helps but can be done without on a hot day
piping, different inserts and such if i can find the people i use to use for embroidery i will offer that to but im not dropping 10k on an embroidery machine so u can have trans am on your headrest lol

ill have to actually take a look at the firebird door panels but im pretty sure there close to fbody door panels.... so yes........ im gonna offer door panels to match the easiest way to do this is to send me your original seat covers and door panels because i will have to take apart and reweld the door back together then reinstall the rubber window molding which is installed with big staples
as far as different colors unless its something exotic the price is gonna be close to the same im gonna go find the tan and black offered in the camaros and keep that in stock anything else i will order in
did these just come in black and tan i dont recall seing any other seat colors
