Quick pic, just completed the driver seat



And yes those are tool scattered around our living room. And actually the fiancé was cool with it haha. She still doesn't understand why I'm changing "perfectly good leather seats". Hahah

Couple more pics, the individual seats show the colors so much better.
The shadows in the car play with the cameras focus, seats look awesome. Had to add some foam to my passenger left bolster, for some reason it lost some of its structure, and made the leather look very saggy.

Beautiful job! Will you be doing the door inserts as well? It really looks fantastic!

I don't think so, I bought a red fabric dye pen. I think I'll just dye the factory white stitching red. I don't really want to take on the task of tearing up my door panels.

Maybe I'll buy some take off base model ones and experiment with them.

Good luck on the doors, I took one of my interior panels off the vehicle, the part with the material on it is plastic welded to the panel. If you cut it loose with a Dremel I am not sure how secure you could get it back to the car. I have not attempted it yet

Oh okay, in that case, you will need a plastic welder. I watch a video about that. You basically heat it up to get the panel loose, and then fuse it back together when you're done.

Fuk that, I'm good with my dye pen idea.

When I purchased my GT PP, I did not want the premium pkg, but did not want cloth either. Instead I opted to go w/ dealer installed Katzkin OEM - Black w/ Ash-Silver stitching; opted for perforated center and wings. Katzkin custom site & you can see the various color samples.

In the beginning I was hesitant, but after talking w/ Katzkin rep directly, I was advised that Katzkin is a major manufacturing distributor for GM.

IMO Quality is top notch & personally we (wife & I) both prefer my custom leather compared to her factory leather in her EB Premium. I would rather had the Heated/Cooled option compared to the Heated after market option w/ mine, but still pleased w/ my decision.

Note, Airbag Tags on the front sides say "Airbag" & does not "Katzkin". As for the wrinkles, they will eventually go away over time (tightening up naturally) depending on heat within your area, or you can use a hairdryer to speed up process.

Hope this information helps for anyone on the fence.

Just finished the katzskins installation i bought from team shelby on ebay. I have a 2016 and everything fit. It was well worth the money! It included new door leather, so i will get a plastic solder attachment and do those next.

Let me know how that goes man, we are waiting for someone to be the first haha
