Default Leather wrapped center console

Has anyone had their center console lid wrapped in leather trim on 4th gen? I was thinking about doing this to match the rest of the leather interior & do the stiching length wise down the center. Thoughts?

I did mine in fabric. Painted the 'Camaro' logo on it, then poured resin to seal it.

If your looking for an Upholstery Guy, I have a buddy who used to own his own shop. He has also worked for a number of places too.

I personally think it would look good. What color of leather to you have?

GMDCAMARO... My leather is Black (Ebony). Do you think your friend would be interested in doing the job? Thanks in advance.

I really want to do this as i think it would make the console look so much better. Hell, i would like to do the entire dash like the New Corvettes with the Leather Trim package but i have a dash cover to eliminate glare so I think I will customize elsewhere.

He is also looking for some side work. I'll give him a "jingle" and see what he says.

Are you supplying the Leather or would that need to be picked up?

Where in Utah are you located?

Well I stopped over @ custom interior hot rod shop in SLC, UT (not sure if I can post the name). They are doing my center console/console lid/ upper dash & door panels like the leather upgrade optioned C6 Corvettes. I might even have the center inserts done in charcoal grey against the black leather. Kind of spendy but their interior guy is amazing & showed me a bunch of his customizations. I might have to push this one off a few weeks as I have too many things going at once.

Hey GMD Sorry for the delay. They wanted to much so can you ask your friend for a ballpark figure?
