Well I snapped a few pics of the new upholstery, the back seats are done and installed. The trim was gray and is now black to match the color scheme.
These pics don't do justice to the work! The fronts are being done and I will post those upon completion!
The lighting at the shop sucks, so these are not the best pics
The front seats are in a leather panel design with the insets, and the foam is like the tempur-pedic stuff...way comfy!
The head rests are leather with cloth back.

Just think, if Rich hadn't joined our motley crew he would have went through life with a totally boring car. Now look at what's happened to him and the car.
Not totally sure if this is a good or bad thing though ![Wink](images/smiles/icon_wink.gif) _________________ Member of the "Elite T56 Club" , big brake club, and "burgundy" (not red or maroon) car owner.

Alloy is exactly right...1 hit off the old Mod-Pipe and here I am!
I am incredibly happy that I joined and have made some awesome friends, and with all the stuff I learned from the crew,
I have given the Shark new life...and it in return puts a monster smile on my old-mug!
Yea with out you guys, shoot I would be bored!
It's just coin! I can make more of that stuff

WOW, I rolled over to the upholstery shop and took a few more pics, I was absolutely blown away with the look of the seats! Still sportin wood!
Head rest front, went from cloth to leather, and I had them add the mem-foam as well, and build them out so they are usable.
The Head Rests are the cloth on the sides and back, I also had them tweaked forward just a bit for more comfort
Head Rest back is in the cloth, I really like the 2-tone material blend, and the funky cord was removed, just clean seams now.
Another side shot.
Completed head rests, the bottom of them has a zipper installed as well.
I am happy that I made the switch to the black in the plastic trim.
The back of the front seats have the pouch, from cloth to leather.
The front of the seat panel, the upper portion is leather the lower panel was not quite to pic stage yet. _________________

Oh I was thrilled with the logo, and the way it pops on the leather!

Thank you so much guys I truly appreciate the thumbs up!
The seat panels are coming together today, the dude doing the work is outstanding!
I went in with a fairly simple scheme and he made it just come to life and did several changes, but WOW he knows his shizzle for sure, so I just let him do his thing!
Thanks again everyone! _________________
