I don't personally care for leather seating (or leather like which-ever the case may be), but those do look pretty sharp!!!
Finished cutting out all the chromed vinyl decals for the back window & put them on today! Only took about 45 minutes to apply, once I figured the easy way to release the decal from the backer. Unfortunately, I ended up creasing a couple of the letters before I figured it out & it's noticeable at less than a car length if you know where to look. But it does look great & is easily readable at up to about 60 feet away. I'll probably replace the creased letters in the next week or two.
I was surprised at how well the chromed vinyl decal material matched the chrome accents already on the car!!! Once applied & flattened out (where possible) they're practically mirror like.
I just hope the adhesive is good enough to hold until I can save up the $$$ to get what I really want made up, but that's going to cost me about $300, where the roll of decal material was less than $15. I like what I've done with the lettering, but it's not quite what I really want, & what I really want is beyond my (current) skill level with decals.

Besides the seats, I have a can of SEM Vinyl Color (flame red) to do highlights on the front door panels, and a Dark Mahogany dash kit that will be going on come spring. Eve and a couple of my other models are already picking out their outfits, so as soon as it's warm enough outside I'll be putting the girls to work on installing it all.

Check these guys out...theu made all the "Bonneville Salt Shaker" decals for my Corvette, as well as the lettering I have on my HHR and Cruiser now. Their web site is very easy to use, or you can get one of their reps to help if you need it and prices are the best I've been able to find.
