There's LOTS of stuff people can do themselves and we don't discourage that in any way. Some people want plug and play,no guess work, guaranteed to work with customer service and a warranty and that's what we offer

Again, 6LE comes out with another idea for me to spend more money. You guys should come up with a unique design for a Trans Am hood.

6LE does do top notch quality, and as for the headlights, look at BLS as they have a HID projector headlight kit available for the firebirds.

so, just curious since you're getting more into the interior stuff, any chance you'll start offering the center section of your seats to be wrapped, like how you did yours? so buyers can get it all done at once from you (new seats, already with custom centers)

What are you using as a skeleton/support structure instead of the OEM cardboard/pressboard

Trust me, Ive done this twice. The first time, I cut the fabric wrong the second time I ended up with a fabric I don't like. This looks like quality material though and it looks very well put together.

I am curious to see pics of the board attached on the back with the epoxy. also interested to see shots inside the map-pocket area and around the speaker hump. As those two areas I had the hardest time getting to fit and fit right.
