So after racking up so many miles the lil things in my interior are starting to wear down...I already replaced my dash pad bcs it was cracked and now my drivers side seat is ripped in the bucket portion right down the middle and the side bolster is wearing out. I know hawks third gen has a leather kit for 450 but thats for both front seats and the rear seats too but I only need to drivers seat leather replaced so is there anywhere that just has that?

Second is the leather on my steering wheel is wearing out at the top



What can you do for this? or would I just have to get a new steering wheel?

afterthoughts auto has a nice steering wheel cover, if you just want to cover it and not replace it. made by wheelskins. you can get any color/color combo, with different styles of leather. i have a black/red plain finish cover, which goes well with my black car and red accents. i get lots of compliments on it, and people think i have a new wheel instead of a cover. very tough, long lasting too. quality piece.

i don't know if you saw my seats in may when i was down there but if you didn't here is what i did. i bought new foam for the top of the drivers seat and then got the hawks third gen parts kit and removed the seats myself and dismantled them. i ended up taking the front seats to a shop to have the side bolster plastic accordian pieces sewn into the new upholstery (GM discontinued them and the new upholstery doesn't come with them)

Total cost was around $850. I spent $400 for the upholstery and $450 in labor for the front seats. i did the rear seats myself. I got them perforated (no cost option) so they would appear as close to stock as possible

I bought the kit and put them in myself. I have a Camaro though, so I didn't have to deal with the accordian piece. If you don't mind not having that piece, you can put them on yourself very easily. It only takes a couple hours and the kit is only $425. I have the Ebony with Torch Red inserts in my 93 Z28.

i lay a towel over the seat bottoms to keep the wear down,especially on the side bolsters from getting in and out. i have done this since i have owned the car(new) and seems to be doing a good job.

The seat covers come without them on, so you just take the old ones off and put the new ones on (without the accordians).
