Agreed. Nice job and all but even if they we're beige/black I still absolutely hate the GTO seats. The leather feels awful. Not soft like my camaros seats.

You may have proved some people wrong but IMO they look way too big and bulky for a T/A and just out of place, not just because of the color either. Nice job installing them though.

if he had them recovered in beige wouldnt the leather feel different than your stock gto leather?

i think they look great, i think i would go with mod red seats and door panels- i know a guy who had mod red interior on his gray/pewter 06 gt looked great

Obviously but maybe I should have been more specific. Regardless of the color, I do not care for the feel of stock GTO seats.

Nice job. Post some pics after they are recovered.

Post some pics of the back seats too. Looks like you have a car seat in the back. LOL I had to put one in the back of mine for week while my runner was in the shop (wife can't drive stick). You should have seen some of the looks I got from people.

Actually if you look close there are 2 car seats back there, one is a black and grey car seat the other is a black and red booster. I am in the market for a G8 or a CTS-V as my wife is pregnant again, so I need a 5 seater now. The T/A will become my other weekend car along with the Vette.

I just picked up a set of.these seats for my camaro and while doing a test fit on The passengers side, I noticed that the raised floorboard where the cat is is causing a major problem with having the seats fit flat on The ground. Any ideas on how to get passed that?

I have a set of Red GTO seats that are going into my Camaro next month. I'll post pics and an explanation of what I did to make them fit nice and low.
