Custom Katzkin Boss 302 Seats

I saw these at SEMA in the Katzkin booth - wrote an article about it too.

How many would be interested in something like this?

Ugly... You shouldn't have to turn your head sideways to look at it... The stripe on the exterior is enough thank you...

Saw those at SEMA. I wouldn't pay $$ to pretty up the standard seats.

Those seats would look hot in a new Camaro ZL1.

Boss don't need no tannery hides. Cloth and faux suede is enough for us.

Ignoring the apparant fact that Boss owners on this forum seem to be completely satisfied with the interiors that Ford churns out, what does everyone think of the posibilities of customizing or tattooing car interiors?

There will be those that go too far and bling out their interiors to the point of ugly excess, but I think it is pretty cool that a major leather car seat manufacturer is looking into a technique to dress up interiors in the aftermarket as much as you can dress up the exteriors.

Maybe taking a cloth seat from a $41,000 performance car was a mistake on thier part, but it is pretty cool that Katzkin chose the Mustang as a sample.

I personally just hope that negative feedback from Boss owners does not kill the project. I guess Katzkin can always turn to the Camaro and start over and hopefully have enough interest to develop the technique.

While it is an interesting design look, it might have had additional interest had there been something rendered in cloth and suede.
