Default Hawks 3rd gean seat upholstery let's See it.

Looking to get my seats redone as they are tore.I was curious who has purchased this kit or a similar kit and had pics of the install.I really want to see what it looks like.I have seen some kits but strayed away from them because they was different from the seats i have.My seats have the stitching going all the way up the seat and some kits have none.So if you have reupholstered your seats show some pics and share input

I really like the seats. I have no bad things to say and they were really easy to put in.

Here's some really old cell phone pictures, but it's the best I have right now. I'll take real pictures once the door panels are done.




More recent picture (colors look kind of weird):

looks good i am assuming that is the Hampton vinyl correct.Also when you went with the two tone did it cost any extra.Because in the drop down box it only list solid colors

Where are you guys looking? Hawks Third Gen has them listed in the drop-down menu, and they don't cost extra. It looks like they are still using the picture of my seats too.

ahh just looked there. we were looking under the trans am seats and you must be talking about the camaro seats (i see thats what you have looking at the pictures) the camro ones are available in two tone without extra price and the trans am one cost extra and you have to inquire about customizing them.

i have them in mine and they were pretty straight forward as far as install goes. bruce at hawks is great to do business with. plus....for less than $500....he sells the SAME EXACT covers that summit sells for over $700..............saaaaaaaaame thing! these are bad pics since they were freshly installed and the vinyal hadnt had time to de-wrinnkle, but they look great now. these things are also MUCH more comfy than the stock covers, bc the vinyl has so thicker foam under it....and they also dont get near as hot as leather does in the summer.

I'm also interested in this as my seats are pretty worn in my z. Anyone have the camaro style like the above but in ebony and red? Did the wrinkles go away after the leather had time to settle? Also whattya guys think abt ebony and red on a pewter car red calipers and a blacked out berger panel with red inlays?

Kinda, only the front piece is. The sides and back are not leather, as well as the doors. They are vinyl.
