My new headrests!
What do you think? I embroidered them myself.
Added a couple of wider shots.

I was totally happy with them! I love the unique look they offer.

Re: My new headrests!
Those ar NICE. I'd love to have those with red instead of blue. How long did it take you to make? And would you be willing to do those to mine? I'd pay for it of course, thats some quality work. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Re: My new headrests!
hmm someone needs to have a headrest that says "performance package" right under the bird similar to the "collector edition" style... I wonder how it look...

Re: My new headrests!
Rice: It took me about 3 hours in photoshop to decide how I wanted it to look and then about an hour to digitize. I have an embroidery machine that stitched it in no time. I'd love to make some for ya, but I can't because of copyright laws <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="gr_sad.gif" />

Re: My new headrests!
Well how exactly do those copyright <img border="0" alt="[bang head]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_banghead.gif" /> laws work? Instead of 'WS6', how bout 'Trans AM'? <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" />

It's actually the firebird image that is licensed, as well as the WS.6 or any other font that Pontiac has created.
Having said that, print off a copy of the pictures and go to a local upholstery/embroidery shop. There's a good chance that they'll do the same thing for you since they will have no idea what it is.

Ok I was thinking of doing that. I have photoshop. Can you send me the file? I'd really appreciate it. alien246@aol.com <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />

Re: My new headrests!
Thanks for the compliments all! The car is black, but my accent colors are silver and blue so the bird really sets it off.
I'll be happy to email anyone that wants the original file. It's not in photoshop format though, it's just a jpeg.

Re: My new headrests!
I had no idea anyone had ever done this before <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> <img src="http://home.ptd.net/~badbird/silverbluemetbird.JPG" alt=" - " />
What do you guys think that would look like with the silver bird/ red out feathers? BTW those pics are from 1 Bad Bird's website, hope he doesn't mind me using them. <img border="0" alt="[cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_cheers.gif" />
