retrimmed the c5!

[pablo81]

nothing to flashy.used to be tan, and now they have a splash of red i also had the corvette emblem and the 'corvette racing emblem put onto the seats as weel as the centre console.

the original leather was trash and most the seat was vinyl , (prob 80% is vinyl, why do they have to be so cheap?)


sorry for the poor pics. it was late and raining so the car stayed in the gargae!


great quality thick hide and done for a great price by gavin @ viechle re-trim services plymouth

£620. they come out to your home remove the seats and then deliver them back a couple of days later. your car is then left safe , home and in the garage whilst its being done!

You can see its a real proffesional job,how on earth did they do the badge and writing in the leather ...well impressive.

[pablo81]

the embroidery is done by providing the image to be scanned and then the automatic sewing machine stitches it in.

Looks an awesome job. Do they rework the padding? With 60K + miles my driver seat is beginning to show its age although the leather is still fine, just not the same shape as the passenger seat any more!

[pablo81]

yes they added extra padding. some fat american (only joking) had splt the foam on the bolster. about 1.5 inch was added to most parts of the seats. if you havnt done this yet, do it. the leather the vettes comes with is soooooo cheap! mine looked knackered after 10k miles!

That is a hell of a good price. Have to bear them in mind if I ever get mt arse in gear and start on my Escort Mex.
