Hey,

Does anyone know about how many yards of the tweed type material it takes to recover the two front seats in an 88-92 camaro?

Thanks!

thecovergirl

It takes 4 yards.

I'm sorry, what I mean is how many yards for just the tweed sections only. Not to do the entire seat in tweed. Thanks.

thecovergirl

Oh ok. I would take 1 1/2 yards and you would have a tiny bit left over.

Great, that's what I needed to know. I appreciate your reply.

I would like to know where one might be able to get the old style black leather looking fabric with back padding and lines sown in a pattern that leaves about 11/2 inches in between the stitching.

thecovergirl

I have not seen what your talking about already made. Ahy upholstery shop can make what your talking about. What are you using it for?

thecovergirl

You are welcome:>)

I would like to make seat covers for my Camaro.

thecovergirl

Oh ok. So your wanting to do it yourself then? I am thinking your talking about the pattern like the 98-02 Camaro's have in them? They have the
1 1/2 inch pleats going from top to bottom.Check this picture out and let me know if these are the pleats your talking about.

Edwardgp

Yes Yes Yes that is exactly what I am talking about were did you get those?

thecovergirl

I made them. I do upholstery work.

Edwardgp

What would a set of those set me back. Of coarse they would have to have the seat cushion covers too. If you don't sell your work over this forum that is OK don't worry about it.

thecovergirl

Yes I do. To do the front and rear seat upholstery with the pleats in it, your looking at $500.00 plus shipping which would be about $35.00. Now what do you mean about about seat cushion covers? These covers replace your existing upholstery. You take your old upholstery off and put the new on. Let me know.
Thanks

Edwardgp

That is what I need now I am writing down your info. and hopefully my income tax return will have enough left over after paying house taxes. I will let you know. When I do cover them I will be using the cover girl. Thank You.

thecovergirl

Great! You are welcome:>) Checkout my website at http://www.lethalinteriors.com and you can see most of my work. Also it might give you some other ideas as well. Thanks again.

Edwardgp

Checked out web site nice work, been looking for this type of cover a long time. Now I will work on the money. Will let other people know of your site when looking for covers. A huge upgrade from what is on e-bay.

thecovergirl

Thank you Yes, alot of the stuff on eBay is made in China and does not last very long, so it just depends on what somebody wants to pay and what quality they expect. Like they always say, you get what you pay for. Thanks again.

Covergirl had some awesome stuff. Once I get some money together, I'll have her make me some two-tone tan and black covers, possibly with a little more side lumbar foam.

thecovergirl

You are welcome. Glad your happy:>)
