So, i decided im not feelin the sparcos that much any more, and i wanna go back to my stock seats, but my stock drivers seat has a nice rip down the side. So i figured, this would be a great time to re-upholster my seats and do somethin coustom with them. I dont wanna go out and pay some one to re-upholster my seats for me for like $1300, so i figured ill do em my self. I got a new un-ripped seat cover coming from Jeff *defgeph* and im gonna use it as a template for re-upholstering my seats. I was thinking of going with a 2 tone red and black, but i think its gonna look kinda ricey considering my car isnt riced out at all *any more..lol*. So i decided im gonna go with a black ultrasuade material to re-upholster the front and back seats, door skins, and headliner. Any ways, im thinkin just plain old black would b kinda boring, so im thinking of gettin some custom embroidered logos put into the seat and door skin material. Im either thinking of doing the TRD logo, or the celica dragon logo.

Dragon logo like this

i would do the 2 tone dragon aswell in thouse colours
or get the seats with the trd logo like these ones

I would put the logo's the same place as the TRD ones on the front and back seats, and in the middel of the door pad on the doors.

What do you guys like better??

im plannin on making a bunch of templates for it. Im gonna sell em so that people can buy the material for them selves and cut it the way it they way they want. But it looks like i got more work for my self now. Me and Sarah are picking up a ST coupe in 2 weeks time and the interior in it is ok, but the one bolster support is pretty ripped up on the passanger side, so i gotta do mine, and hers now.
