Here is the 1st pic of my new black and medium gray MrMikes sports style seats. Like everything else I have done so far to the car, they turned out better than I expected.


There are more pics of the seats on my website, as well as pics of the new cross-drilled rotors and the rear wing relocated 2" further back on the lid

Yay Lisa!!!!

Can't wait to see pics, sip77, yours look great!!!

I need to find a place to either order NEW seats, or get mine re-upholstered.

Can't put the nice new covers on aging crappy 14 year old seats!!!

I finally saw Mr.Mikes leather seats in person this past October, while I was visiting Devotshka in Florida. Both he and his next door neighbor have MrMikes, and out of a 10, I'd rate them a 12!!!!!

Can't wait till I get a set for my car!...

1st one took about 4 hours, second was easier. As long as you have the video, it's almost impossible to screw up.

They do retain shape nicely. the seats are even starting to mold to the shape of my ass.

Door sills are red stock from the factory. 88GT's had the monochrome paint

The wonderful thing abut Mr Mike's seats is that you do not have to have a great set of seats to start with. When you order from him let him know if you have spots missing foam or what ever the problem and chances are he know what you need to do to fix it.

Or you can always come to the Daytona show and talk to Mike in person. He is a great guy to talk to!!!

All right, my turn!
Mine are about two years old now, and the steering wheel was done last year.



BTW, I can't get over all the real nice custom interiors I've been seeing lately.

You take to old upholstery off, and recover the seats. There is a video and tools that come with the seats. It even comes with some cotton to restuff flat spots. Only takes about 4 hours for the 1st seat and 2 for the second one. They fit like a glove and look super sweet. Makes the car smell like new leather too.

Well, these aren't seats but they are still from Mr. Mikes. I got my yellow door bottom panels from him and just finished replacing the rug on the doors with the new panels.


Seats to come soon!

Great looking interiors people! I've GOT to get some Mr. Mike's in my Formula! I just wish he still did more stuff than just the seat covers.

Hey, SJP, I noticed on your website you've got crossdrilled rotors and carbomet pads. How do you like them? Are they worth the extra money? I've heard some people complain about them making the pedal way too hard.

I love the new rotors and carbomet pads. I don't notice any difference in the pedal feel. Car does seems more solid under hard braking. The pads leave less dust on the rims and the rotors make this cool wooshing sound when you hit the brakes from the drilled holes racing over the pads.

They were worth the money, especially when I was due for new rotors anyway. They're not much more than new stock ones would be.

Ok, I love Mr. Mikes leather seat covers and am pondering on making a purchase.

Does anyone have a pic of the style 500 with the black on the exterior and the saddle on the interior and a tan embroidered logo?

Just thought I would ask since this post has so many other seat pics.

Thanks

It is a Grant FX Splash II series wheel. I got it through Jeg's automotive. It goes good with the color scheme I am trying to achieve!
