Leather Parking Brake Cover? - Camaro5 Chevy Camaro Forum / Camaro ZL1, SS and V6 Forums

I have a 1LT/RS and absolutely love the car. Everything feels quality except for one thing. The plastic(?) parking brake with it's faux texturing comes off as incredibly cheap. The plastic isn't even solid and you can pinch and deform it! With a leather wrapped steering wheel and shifter the plastic seems so out of place.

I'm guessing the 2LT/2SS have leather wrapped parking brakes? Is it possible to order the part and replace it?

My 10 SS/RS doesn't have any leather on the arm for e-brake lever.
Would be a nice touch though.

I'm assuming you got the C&C Package otherwise your shifter and Steering wheel would be plastic like mine is. That's my only regret as far as the car, I should've gotten the 2LT/RS and It really wasn't a money issue, just being stupid. It's okay I'm putting in Custom leather and hopefully a Custom Steering wheel so it's all good. Anyways, I don't believe any of the cars have a leather wrapped parking break, but maybe talk to dsvcustoms I'm should they could make you happy, they have some amazing work.

We all have the same E-brake handle. There are a few after market companies on the site that do offer at least a cover for the back half of the assembly. They kinda look like boot a shift boot. Do a search you should find it pretty easily and I'm sure some of those guys will post links here soon.
