If you like it, do it. But I like for all my seats to match.

Since your fronts and backs wouldn't match and the fact that those seats are ugly would make me think it would look gay, but hey if you do it you might just prove me wrong.

Those seats look terrible. Whoever designed those seat covers should have been fired.

Lol, I'm glad you said you're a Democrat in CA and NOT a redneck otherwise you'd be giving us rednecks in CA a bad name

Just kidding man but you're way better off doing something ELSE custom. A local guy (about an hour drive for you) did this to my seats for $200...



Embroidery was $40 from my shirt/hat guy and houndstooth was brought by Sommer but the work to stitch it, pull the covers on and off and stitch my seatbelt guides on was about $200.

I LOVE the seats, just not in a 4th gen.

I love the 80's.
