I don't use seats...Milk crate on bare metal floorboard is the only way to go.

What do you think about this seat design?

Big thanks goes to Okfoz for the templates that made this design. The situation: I've got a worn carmine Ultima interior in my GTA and want something...different. What do you think?? Any suggestions on the empty spots in the seat?

Thanks man. I like the last one as well. Simple....but I don't have black seat backings. I've got the red. I don't know if it'd match well with the red seat backings and red interior panels. I've thought about a change to black interior, just for the black seat backings and everything, but add onto that 1300 dollar bill another 1000 dollar bill for all of the interior panels. Big $$$ I don't have.

I got the idea for the black all the way up the seat from High Performance Pontiac's cover article on the LT1 Judge. His interior is the best (and simplest) I've ever seen on a fourth gen. Yours being the best on a third.

If anyone comes across a car with a black interior (GTA preffered before 89), let me know. It's all in the $$.

And thanks again man for the help on designs. I have what's known as Poor Man's Photoshop...printer, cheap scanner, and colored pencils.

Ug...I wish I had a torn up BLACK interior.

3.1, I thought I would let you know that the sketches of the seats really are not from a GTA that I used, notice the headrest is slightly different than what is shown, but it is close enough for government work

I modified the sketches so they were closer to the GTA style seat, but I left the headrest alone...
