Would look kinda strange with the seats one color and the center, door armrests a different one. Dont you need the car for the seats to get the pattern? Group buy anyone?

The manufacturer is waiting to get a car from a local dealer so they can make the patterns. So I'm guessing that will happen in April or May when the dealer gets thier V6 car. If I recieve my car before they do I'll drive it to California and let them make the patterns from mine because I'm ordering black with yellow inserts.

Dude.... took you long enough to reply!


Kidding. My computer was all goofy sorry for the double post.

I normally sell these kits for around $1000, but if a group of at least 10 people can get together and order at the same time I could sell them for around $850 each.Thats assuming my cost for the kits for the Camaro are the same price as the current model cars.

At only 850, I might totally jump on this as soon as I get the car, instead of waiting till a few years after.

P.S. - oh my god... I just visited their website and I so want a dark graphite seat, with pearl faces and red stitching...

[Txturbo]

Yeah...they make some nice stuff. You can also get custom logo stitching on the headrests in any color and for an additional charge we could create our own special edition package with emblems for the outside of the car.

Do they offer stitching other than the Katzkins logo? When I checked their site it seemed to imply that there was no other embroidery available.

They have a lot of custom logos to choose from or you can create your own. You can also use SS or Camaro but those would require an additional royalty fee. I think its 10-15%. Here are some of them.

[Xanthos]

How much does it cost for the custom logos, assuming its NOT a royalty related item?

I was thinking something like the uppercase form of the greek letter Xi.

So how do these katskinz work? Do you remove what's currently on the seats and put these on or do these go over what's already on the seats? I have a 2001 Accord with aging leather and this may be a way to freshen that up as well as the Camaro when it arrives.

Yes....you remove the cover thats on there and replace it with these. Katzkin is also licensed by Honda. In fact, I believe they make the OEM leather for Honda. I have a separate brochure just for Honda and Toyota.

TxTurbo, do you do quotes? I'd like to know how much I'd be looking at to re-do the Camaro's interior...PMs are fine if you need to.

Excellent food for thought, thanks.

Well lets get the group buy going guys! Its pretty easy to install, I did my mazda6 and it took about a full day of work. The only problem I had was with the door trim. I had to rip the door panel apart in order to install the leather door trim. But worked out nicely. Hey TXTturbo can you see if they can do the center armrest. There is stitching on there so I really do not want to do that myself. Leatherseats.com included the center armrest on their deal.
