Default Need pics of velour (material) please.

Im trying to decide on what cover to order with my seat and velour is one of the materials, but Ive never heard or seen it. If anyone has pics of this material, please post it. Thanks.

Google is your friend Jeramy. Type in Velour Racing Seat and see what comes up! Here is an example http://www.maximummotorsports.com/kirkey.asp

Velour, in my opinion, just wouldn't be right. It's got a pretty plush pile, so would attract contaminates (dirt, odor, etc.)

It would be best suited to an old pimp-mobile, not a race car

From the picture, it almost looks like velvet. PendragonZ, I get what youre saying. Too tacky for a race car. I wouldnt consider my car a full out race car, but its getting there. I still want it to have a nice look to it. I mentioned to the guy from Kirkey that the car orginally had leather, so he said that he would definately go with the velour. Its a good thing I posted about this because I would of made the mistake of ordering it. What do you think about vinly or should I just go with tweed like everyone else? Thanks.
