I'm planning my seat upgrade and I've chosen Sparco Milano's (alcantra fabric), however I need some advice on color choice as I will be ordering additional fabric to do the rear seats and door panels as well. BTW, the exterior color of my car is Monterey Maroon if that helps any.

Here is a link to the seat color choices :

My headliner, leather seats, seatbelts and carpet is neutral in color so what do you think would look best in my 01 Camaro ?

Since the additional fabric is being sold by the meter, how many meters of additional fabric would I need to order ?

I have the black and grey torinos. I love them! You should go with the tan Milano's and buy extra tan leather for the door inlay. What is the in side color of your car? My car is all two tone in side. panels can be dyed. I have seen a car with the back seats wraped in the same matteral with the company name on them looked sweet.

I wanted to steer away from leather so I choose the Alcantra fabric which is supposed to be extremely durable. The closest color to tan would be beige.

I have neutral(leather) and ebony (plastic) on the door.

I plan on having all the interior fabric replaced with the Alcantra fabric. Hopefully someone can chime in here and tell me how much I need to order for the back seats and door inserts. Having the 'SPARCO' logo stitched into the back seats would look great, I'll have to see how many $$$ that will cost.

It is very durable campared to the so others but will still get a little "furly" on high wear spots. OH have fun mounting 3 point belts if you are. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I considered getting the 3 point but I'll wait and see how everything comes together at the end.

BTW, I'm going to be installing my Wilwood 6 pistons in about a month. How are the holding up ? Any issues with the lack of dust boots ?

The Sparco's 3 point with the buckle on the 3 point is the best if you have the "child seat mounts in the rear. The 2 side clip to loops so they will unclip. The 6piston are sweet wish I chould get them for the rear but I have a KTRE rear end. The only problem is with hals the front air dam hits the ground under hard braking. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

I have the child restraints in the rear hatch, I assume the 3 points are street legal ?

Glad to hear the 6 pistons are holding up well, I know what you mean about the rear fitment issue. My problem is with traction control, I remember Steve2000SS had this problem. Not a big deal since there should be plenty of stopping power up front.

Btw, thanks for the great info...

I like the all black because it is a bitch to match the inter on a two tone. But tone tone back seat look sweet wish I had the pics of my buds back seats. Still think a Tan torino with black tips is the best then you can order some of the black rubber on the side on the back seats.

Hmm, I really like the idea of the black and tan 2-tone, now if only they made one like that <img border="0" title="" alt="[Sad]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Do you have any pics of the seats in your car ?

Did the Sparco mounting brackets work out well, or was it a b!tch to setup (please don't tell me you had to drill holes)...
