Okay so I was eventually going to replace my seat because on the side its starting to wear. Well I came home today for my moms birthday and to drive my car a little even though it has a misfire. Well as I was getting out I noticed on the bottom part of the seat right down the middle theres a good 8 inch tear. So my need for a new seat has definitely increased. No where can I find stock replacement seats online. Is there anyways I can just get my seat fixed or will I have to buy a new one? I was looking at aftermarket seats but I'm not sure if black seats would look good in my interior.

These are the only decently priced seats I know of but they only come in black



this is what my interior looks like

if you do replace them I would be willing to buy your wrecked ones.

ok, if you take pics of the rips I could tell you how easy it would be to fix.

if that is the only damage it wouldn't be to bad to fix at all. I would guess an upholstry shop would charge around $200

yeah i have a local guy that does custom full interiors on classic cars from like the 30s and such. Would I have to buy new pieces or what?

they will be able to order factory leather and just replace those to seat panels that are ruined. I also do custom upholstery.

yeah i looked at them but they are more expensive...being a college student on a summer job budget...cant afford to spend 1k on seats when i need another 1.5k on opti, waterpump, extending duals out the rear, and sound deadening...although i could do some of this while at school next year

I'm prity sure GTO seats are to wide to fit in the F-body, not to mention they would be about touching the roof.

GTO seats dont fit. people have tried since 04......they dont fit.

The posted seats look real good, but black is definately going to fight your color scheme. Also, see if you can get some references on any seat you want to buy, it is not all about apprearance...you have to ride on those things and ones that skimp on materials or design can leave you with legs/feet going to sleep and aches in places you didn't even know you had. Sometimes price is just paying for a brand-name, othertimes it reflects more engineering or better materials or workmanship.
