Talking My upholstered cage and custom bottle blanket

I just got my car back from having the cage upholstered to match the interior. I also had a custom carbon fiber pattern bottle blanket made for the nitrous bottle and a custom blanket made for the package shelf. The blanket will be embroidered with a Z28 logo next week. I thought it all turned out real well......

Very unique. I must say that I haven't seen anyone do that to a rollcage yet!

my '98 came that way, but was not quite to my liking so i tossed it out. if your's looks better, than great, but just doesn't quite look right imo. the bottle blanket however looks great! personally, i'd leave it just the way it is too.

later,
Dave

Here are some more pictures. The material used on the cage matches the upholstery in the car but in some pics the sun caused it to look to be a different color.
The cage has swingout bars on each side so we couldn't upholster all the way to the junction of the bars.

That is sweet. It looks like it could have been a dealer option.

Get some tint, it will keep it from fading.
