Default Re-upholstering GTO seats, what do you want to see?

I am going to be buying some seats from a 2004 GTO to re-upholster for fun, is there anything you would like to see done or any specific colors you might want to see?

I will be doing which ever suggestion sounds the best or a combination of a few, so let me know what you would like to see.

I am not going to put them in my car, just picking them up for cheap, figured I would have some fun with them and kind of use them to show people what I can do. Or if someone would maybe want to buy them.

Kind of hard to really open your options up on this one due to the color of your car. The Polo Green is very nice....just limits your options a bit. Just please don't do anything white!

These are not going in my car. Just wondering if there is anything specific you guys might want to see? Cause I am planning on becoming a sponser in the future and would like to show members here what I can do.

Maybe some hounds tooth inserts?

oh, and I didnt think you were being out of line at all. I do not plan on putting these in a F body, if I put them in anything it will be my 71 nova, but doubt it. Just came across these locally and figured I would pick them up and work on em.

Suede inserts...maybe black leather with gray or charcoal suede and if they are in an fbody it should have matching Z28, SS, or whatever badges. Or if in a GTO maybe say GOAT instead of GTO

We could do an exchange like I did for my interior panels.
You could re-stitch the top "bib" portion of all 4 seats with Black GTO stitching then send them to me I swap out mine and send mine to you!
I know alot of guys on the GTO site jumped on doing their door panels this way.
Depending on price of course.
Let me know.
Thanks
Mike


Or the whole center? What would the price difference be?
