FYI - they made a slight change to the placement of the badges as seen in the store. All badges will go on the top of the seat - both front and back, and the front headrests will have the CS signature - as seen in the Terlingua example in the store. The only badge placed on the headrest will be the 427 version.

I just had mine installed. I took my seats out yesterday and dropped them off at the local installer. They had no trouble getting the covers on in a day. I picked up the seats and installed them this afternoon. Only complaint - my installer didn't take the time to get the cushions and covers symmetrical. I had to take some time to manipulate the cushions under the covers to get them right.

Then it started to rain - and I didn't have time for outside pics. So here are a few from inside the garage.

Thats pretty cool. I like.

[raw power]

Wow, those look better than I thought they would.....now I have to convince the wife to go with another purchase They look GREAT! Congrats.

[07SS697]

they look awesome

[b17drvr]

That looks fantastic. That will be the next addition to my 40th.

[txcobra]

Looks great! Thanks for posting pics. I think you must be one of the first , if not the first 40th to get this done!! I was seriously considering it...now I think I am saving my pennies for a Red GT500 Coupe that will someday be supersnaked. One question though, does anyone think there can be too much Shelby (logos and badges) on these cars?

[gt67]

Yes, I think it's an overkill. Looks great, but way too many 40th logos and badges on the car. Next special package will be under the hood! Seat package would look much nicer on a Shelby GT.

They look great but the silver color reminds me of some MOON BOOTS I had when I was a kid.

I kinda wish the 20% sale was still going on I would probably get them for my SGT

A couple more daylight shots...

Looks good John,

Do they feel more comfortable to you?? Hopefully some of the wrinkles will come out in the sun.

Did you ever get you Kenne Bell installed?? I thought you had ordered one at the bash in Januarly when we talked??

Hey Alex -

My buddy Dan with the White/Blue coupe is the one who's getting the KB soon. I just ordered the 2.9 Whipple from Evo - hope to get that in soon.

Yes - I figure the material will smooth out over time - it was wrinkled in shipment. I really like the extra side bolster support - has more of that wrap-around feel..

[vapor08GT500]

Sounds good John. What was your friends name with the white and blue coupe?? I am terrible with names!! LOL.

The shop that installed the upholstery should have layed it out in the sun first...Oh well, the wrinkles will get better with time. I think the silver inserts look great with the silver stripes on your 40th. Take care.

Alex

[vapor08GT500]

OOPs...sorry, you already said his name...sorry...did Dan get his KB put on yet??

Alex

[GT500FLYBOY]

Dan is supposed to get the KB in the next month or so. I may get my Whipple before he gets his done.

Be sure to blowup the pics - the material looks less wrinkly...

Love the look of the new seats! +1 on the wrinkles, I'm anxious to see if the leather settles down, which it should if it's a good quality leather. I might just have to pull the trigger on the blue seats. Now look what you've started! Cha-Ching

John,

The covers look awsome and I would order them, BUT I got the red and black seats and doors on mine

On a great note I did ship my airbag cover off to be signed
