Default Headrest Embroidery Opinions please ...

I am considering a one-off embroidery on my headrest areas, please let me know if you like this or that, or have another opinion (Yellow thread on black leather). Thanks much ...

My opinion is ZHZ without anything else. No oval.

You need to do just the ZHZ only no oval. I designed/sewed out your idea just to have an idea of how it would look on my embrodery machine. The C6 logo is cool but is to busy. Good luck.

I go go both ways, I like a clean seat, you dont have to worry about it it looking tarnish or old, on the other hand they do like nice but you dont need it!

^^ That is the best looking design, my worry is will it be stitched exactly centered and straight?

Before scrolling down at the comments I looked at the designs and decided "A" was the best...BUT...*JUST* the ZHZ, nothing else. Forget the cross flags, oval and Corvette. The last one is ***WAY*** to busy. The simpler the better!

Great advice, thanks to all. I initially thought just the ZHZ was a bit too simple, so added some booty. Now, I like just the ZHZ, so which of these two attached below?

The first is just yellow thread on the leather, the 2nd is a yellow fill with black stitched border (and is also the original embroidery on the console)?

Macho gracious!

Especially don't put the word CORVETTE on it. Everyone knows it's a Corvette.

B,C & D = too busy. "A" is the best looking IMHO.
