Seems like everyone likes black and red except me lol. I have never been a fan of red interior no offense to anyone who has it just not my thing so I'm going with black and white. I have found a process that makes vinyl SUPER stretchy and allows me to cover all my hard plastic in one piece on vinyl no seems or stitching. I did my A pillars and they look awesome. I'll be doing my dash pad tonight witch I got out without cracking !! I'll do a little write on on how I'm doing it tonight.

Right now I'm recovering all the hard plastic trim, dash, console , door panels all that with whisper vinyl ( imitation leather ) once that's all done I'm gonna get new carpet then I will probably get these seats

It will be the devil keeping them clean....I had a white interior in my 75 Camaro. EVERYTHING stained them. Bluejeans turns them blue.

Looks good so far. Any pics of the rest of the interior panels? I think subtle accents (like stitching) would look way classier than having large sections of color.

I'm still looking for decent stock interior seats or replacing them with some aftermarket stuff as well. My current interior is TAN. I just missed a set of reupholstered tan/black SS seats. I don't mind aftermarket, but I am torn on which colors to use and IF I should buy new carpeting. There are no rips or tears, so I suppose I should just see what a detail does.

The colors I'm considering are: tan, black/tan, black/red, or black/orange. If I do anything other than tan or black/tan, I'll have to redo the rear seats at some point.

What's truly disappointing is what people are charging JUST FOR REPLACEMENT COVERS. Most of us can buy replacement SEATS for less than the $550-1100 these guys are charging.
