I will install and post pics tonight!!
At first the yellow seemed a little light in color, not dark enough, so I will check with the car when I get home.

The qualty is great though. I love them.

ok, here they are. the color is a bit lighter then screaming yellow, ( closer to Zinc) but being on the inside of the car, they look good.
Fast turn a round time, and nice quality

I have to say the more I look at them, the more I like them, the color is close to the car ( not perfect) but close........turned out great.

Rene, that looks awesome. Have you thought about changing out the center part of your seats (with the ponies) to a yellow facric? That would make them look even more like custom seats... and I know you are trying to impress car show judges.

I thought about that, I just havnt "gone there yet" ( haa haa haa)....I like the ponies, so it would be a shame to get rid of those....but, you never know!

Thanks for the idea. I would like to incorporate a bit more yellow on the interior

OK Boys and Girls, fresh from Giulio himself, the much anticipated Pony and Tri-bar embroidery. I am very pleased with the quality of the embroider. I would recommend to anyone wanting to do this in the future to ask Giulio to center the embroider on the white bar on the tri-bar instead of on the center of the total artwork as it does feel to be set ever so slightly too far to the left, but I am VERY pleased with the way these came out! I just put them on, so they are still a bit wrinkled. Enjoy!

I'm thinking about getting the tribar done. How do u remove the cover off the headrest? I see that the headrest look buckled will that flatten out?

The cover clips together, you'll have to work them off. Just when you think they are about to break, they come off. The covers are flattening out more every day. I think the key is to get them warm. I have been leaving my car out in the heat of the day, and with a black interior it doesn't take long to warm them up! I don't know if they'll ever get completely flat, there are just too many stitches in there! By the way, be sure to have the image centered on the white bar, not the total image, as mine looks like it is just a bit off center to the left.

My yellow turned out great. Notice the trophy in the background that I won @ the car show this weekend

I like the tri-color bar with ponies on the headrests. It adds a little something to the dark charcoal interior. The added color is a welcome addition. Nicely done!

Anyone try two different embroideries for the headrests? Say, passenger: running pony, driver: GT or tri-bar, or even the ponies running in different directions. That could be unique.

I'm curious whether the puckering issue was fixable?. I'd do this in a minute, but I know it would drive me nuts if the bars were wavy/puckered.

My headrests have been back together for a little over two months now with the embroidery on them, and there is still a little puckering around the stitching. I haven't done anything to remove this though, so that doesn't mean it can't be done ... just that I haven't done it.

Puckering is very slight though.
