    Painting the leather seats is probably not a good idea.

    Yeah, that would work, I just know that painting the leather will not last long. Paint on leather will eventually crack...

    Here's some photchops I was working on.







    I'm digging the copper color, but most likely do the flat black on black. Here's mine after a quick photochop. Notice the blacked out rims ..

    wow nice job! i actually like most of those colors.. copper looks nice.. also like the first blue one too... a lil darker and i think youve got it!

    for the military look i think a matte olive color would look good with a matte khaki cladding.. or vice versa

    $$$ Doable $$$

    Had an upholstery shop quote me $75 once just to repair a split seam on cloth seats. I ended up fixing it myself (I work REAL cheap when I work for myself).
