John - Thanks and I left you a phone message
Fierotregg - Can do, I have a set of Indy Armrest, so I can come close the original color. However I can recover them in the style stitching as in my pics

Just finished these and they are going to the UK - Red C/F



I sent several sets out before the Holidays and am still waiting for the cores to be returned, so if you have received your covered sets and haven't sent those cares back to me yet, I would appreciate the cores as I have other orders pending

They are Vinyl, but honestly, you could never tell! The are a very high quality, soft leather like vinyl. I showed them to a friend, and he was certain that they were done in leather.... I had to show him the back, and peel up just a small corner to show him the vinyl backing.

Excellent on the impartial feedback on the feel and look. Im really leaning to a two tone but I want to see what colors to do the other pieces in... shifter surround, hvac, gauge surround.... got my spares

Hey Russ, I'm doing my seats in Mr Mikes leather, They're dark gray #8 and red, would you have the dark gray #8 and red to match? I would want them to be really close.

Theres a picture of my seats in this thread. https://www.fiero.nl/forum/F...HTML/067014-112.html

And if so, can you do the lighter color of the Beechwood with the dark Brown stitching?

Don't know if this has been asked or would be possible but are you thinking of doing a whole door skin ??
Like a two tone type idea ..like black and grey with a different colour stitching or is that even possible to do a door skin!?
Thanks!

Russ88TTop, based on the photos I've seen so far, your armrest work looks very professional!

For that reason, I just sent you a PM with an order for armrests.

What are you doing with the top screw cover that pops into place? Got any finished pictures of that area after install?

Ever redone entire door panels?

WOW WOW WOW!

I ordered the armrests and door panels in black, received them today and am 110% pleased with them. What a nice job Russ does. He went the extra mile to help me meet a tight schedule and I must say I am very pleased with how they turned out... Exceptional quality and great install instructions.

I will post some before and after pics as I will have them installed this weekend.

Thank you Russ!

@Russ: I see a few people asking about covering shifters, but have not seen a response. I was also wodering if you can do this. I have a "snake head" shifter out of a Grand Am that I would like done in black with blue stitching to match the rest of the stuff you have covered for me.

I actually have a few shifters here I have gotten out of the junk yard, I would be happy to send you one to mess around with, and see if you can do it.
