Hi guys.

I am from Spain,recently I upholstered my corvette and wanted to share the photos with you.

The leather was chosen Venice leather and alcantara roof, this is the result.

Thanks for the comments guys.

Another mod I've done to the insulation of the floor, the pillar of transmission, door panels, roof ...

We have greatly reduced vibrations and the heat inside.

Other pics before of the job.

It's simply stunning and yet somewhat subtle. Great job!

I've thought of changing the center console,air vent and panel instrument with carbon fiber.

Another option is to put 3M DI-NOC brushed aluminum to give look a more metallic and solid.



What do you think?

The subtle style makes it look very OEM. Nice upgrade!


(Glad you didnt paint the console yellow as many have. That would have ruined the whole thing.)

I agree with you, the center console yellow remains elegance .

Definitely change it. Either carbon fiber or black. The silver is a little too bright and kind of takes your eye away from the beautiful leather.
Unbelievable Job!!!! Your interior is amazing.

Beautiful work, the B pillars and roof really take it to a different level.

WOW. Looks great.

Where did you order the parts from?

And what kind of shop did the install?

Do you have any creaks or rattle from taking all the panels apart?
