Cut-up seat, Need leather color help Hey all...
At work, I commonly carry a fold-out Gerber blade on my belt. Yesterday, the blade unfolded while attached to my belt as I was leaving work because I didn't engage the latch on the knife. I sat down in the car, and this happened:
Here is a picture of my T/A:
I have looked at several leather seat covers from autoseatskins.com (Katzkin leather):
http://www.autoseatskins.com/pontiac...er-p/ypo28.htm
but am unsure of the colors. I think the body color should be "Dark Graphite" to match the ebony interior of my TA, and I would like to color the center to an accent color that compliments the exterior color of the car. I also have the vent rings, shifter, and radio bezel painted silver, so that also may be a color option as well. Has anyone used the Katzkin or similar companies to make such seats, and what did you think of them? Thanks in advance.

You maybe able to get a set of used factory covers from Camaroking.com . I know he replaces a lot with custom interiors and usually sells the factory ones pretty reasonable. Just tell him what year it is and it should match up since they were all the same color 98-99 and 00-02 (except tan of course.)

I couldn't find that website, I did find camarokingla.com, but I think that's a different site. I'm looking to fix this as cheaply as possible.... I think if I do the Katzkin route, it's gonna cost me $1K or more. If I have to take this route, what color on their site is closest to the ebony leather I currently have?
