Default Opinions needed on new interior!

I'm getting rid of my tan cloth seats and getting them recovered in two toned black/tan vinal. My car is a 97 camaro so it alrady has the embroidered 30th emblems in the headrests and in the middle of the back seats. I'm not sure weather I should get a Z28 logo embroidered in the headrests or just stick with the 30th emblems? Also thinking about getting some embroidering on the door panels. Will that be too much? What do you guys think? If you have any other ideas, feel free to chime in.

The seats will look something like this

I think you should stick with one emblem. They will look good and not cluttered.

i agree. go with the 30th emblems and nothing on the doors. IMO simpler is better.

30th emblems for sure. As far as the door panel, if you did something fairly small and simple it could look good, but just leaving it alone will look good as well.

Yea, I'm kind of thinking the same thing. We thought about doing the camaro lettering on the door panels in just tan stiching so it wouldn't stick out too much but still be there. I am fairly sure I want the 30th emblems on the seats though. Thanks for the input.

I'd go with the 30th Anniversary Emblem on the driver & passenger seats. I wouldn't do anything on the back seat, or on the door panels.

Nice color combo, stick with it. Stay with the 30th emblems on the seats, not the the door though.

Thanks for all the input guys. I just went and checked out some sample materials for the seats. Now I have a whole other list of decisions to make. Do I want sued in the middle of the seats or vinal? Do I want perferated or solid? Black thread or tan. So many freakin choices!
