Default Firebird CLOTH Interior In Camaro w/Matching Door Panels

I completed this project around Thanksgiving, but I'm just now getting around to posting pics.

I got an INCREDIBLE deal on a set of cloth seats out of a '99 Firebird. I installed them and then it bugged me that the Camaro cloth door panels didn't match, so I went on a search to find the matching uphostery and I had a local shop re-cover the Camaro door panels in the matching cloth. I'm VERY pleased with how it turned out!

I think I'm going to call it a Cormarobird now I've got an '04 LS6 crate motor in my '98 Z28 with a '99 Firebird interior

It matches pretty good, and you did a clean job.

I like the subtle changes and a non-F-Body fan probably wouldn't know the difference and that's how I like it...Here's a pic of the whole car:

...I've now got more tied up in the door panels than I do in the seats... I paid $80 for a set of door panels out of a part-out on here, $60 for the matching upholstery (2 yds., but I only needed 1 as it turns out) and then $100 labor for the shop to recover the panels.

However, even with all that, and the purchase price of the seats and gas to go get them (they were 2 hours away), I've still only got like $450 tied up in this swap.
