Thats what I wanted but could never find anyone that would do the autobot symbol.

I hate to resurrect an old dead thread but does the headrest cover come off and lay flat?

My wife has an embroidery machine but it can only work on flat pieces....

Thanks.

i got mine done in long island. sent it away and within 4 days i had it back. they already have the pattern for the autobot emblem. they will do anything you want, very easy to work with. i am very happy with the quality of th ejob they did.

yes once you take the leather cover off the headrest it lays flat

I want to dye the stiching on the SS and all interior to match my body color (Rally Yellow ) any suggestions ?

YES, but your wifes machine will have to have a "free arm" set up, as when you take off the cover, its in the shape of the head rest or like a tube only open at the bottom.

It been a month since this post, any update?

This is one mod we can afford right now and having the ss done in white against the orange leather would really make it pop.

Well right now I'm waiting for her to get back to me since there was like a 3 week waiting period for the digitalization. Its been just about 3 weeks since she received my headrests and I spoke with her so she should be getting back to me soon, will keep you updated

Thanks for the quick update Red! Can I throw a little something your way to help cover the set up cost?

I've been playing in Photoshop and think I'll go with black SS that are outlined with white trim.



Or white cause the car is white???

The set up cost isn't that bad, I think she said it was $40, but anything helps a college kid if you feel like helping

btw just a reminder if you already have factory ss headrests, you'll need to order clean ones (without the factory ss) for them to put whatever on them.

Yep, I got that info written down for hubby to place the order with GM.

Red, can you PM me a address where I can throw a little something your way. I did this for a couple of organizations way back so I appreciate your time and $$ to get it done.

I want to send my headrests over to Pam @ Colorado, but I am skeptical.

I am skeptical because the "RS" Logo on some people's headrests looks a little slanted, and on others it looks perfectly balanced and straight.

well you shouldn't......Pam and that crew do a GREAT job, I wouldn't hasitate for a minute....IF I were to buy another RS, I would send the head rests to them AGAIN in heart beat.

Thanks for the review Sir Nuke, but my question is why does the Logo look so slanted on some people's headrests and on others it looks perfect.

Could it be the angle of the picture? Or am I just driving myself crazy

You may already be crazy!

Its got to be the angle of the picture, I have NEVER heard of ANYBODY complain after Pam did theirs.....and ya know this crowd, if someone did a bad job on ANYTHING on their car.....you KNOW you would hear about it!! lol for you can even ask my wife....she think I am OCD at times when it comes to my car.....and if there was ANY CHANCE they wouldn't have came out perfect.....it wouldn't have been done......After I had mine done about a year ago, I took it back to the dealer to show them....they wanted the info so they could send them out on their lot!!

That's awesome! Good to see other Camaro Owners that are just as picky as me

I'm going to give Pam a call later on today.

Thanks for all the info Sir Nuke!

Does anyone know what color the stitching is on the OEM SS Headrests? I want to do mine like that. It looks the cleanest.

well here is what I did, and that was to make the RS look like the cars badge. The stiching around the RS is "silverish" not metalic thread....but a light gray. here is a pic of mine.

[liquidsmoke]

are you guys all sending your headrests to the same place?

Thanks Sir Nuke, but I am talking about the OEM SS Headrests that already come stitched from factory. What are the colors that GM used?

I saw a picture of it and the outline of the logo looks like a light silverish color, and the inside seems to be black.

Can anyone confrim?
