Default Interior, Down to the Bolts.

As some of you know, I have an 85 Camaro Blue and White waiting to be worked on. Just tore out the blown v6 last night, my old man and I were working til about 1 in the morning, but we got it done. The 85 has red leather, ratty interior, and I don't like the look on a blue car that I may eventually paint black.

I'm going to be gutting my 91 of ALL the interior (it's black and in fairly good condition). My question is, will it cost more for me to find a reupholstered bucket seats made from fabric, or should I take my chances and go with leather? If I'm just going leather, I could simply buy some fabric and leather paint, reupholster one seat, etc. etc. in the 85. Do I wanna do that much work? Should I just buy new seats?

I just had all my seats and door panels redone at a local Upholstery shop last year, I used a micro suede for the fabric instead of leather and it came out pretty nice the cost to have it done this way was just under fifteen hundred it would have cost about one thousand more to go with the leather. The other option would be to buy a new upholstery kit form one of the third gen parts sites, as long as the foam pad is still good, for a good price if you were going to it yourself, for under five hundred.
