it is pretty cool --- i have to go to San Antonio later in the month anyway ----hmmmmm

jayharrell · 05-03-2008, 07:32 PM

its nice. not sure about $900 nice. But the door panels are covered too.

What color inside would you avhe to paint to make that work?? Black maybe. If the dash and roof were orange, that would look odd.

The picture is making it look a lot more orange than what it really is I am sure.
If you have ever seen ostrich skin cowboy boots (the only thing I have to base it on) it isn't THAT orange - but it is pretty burnt.

All that said - I think the seat looks great - the door panels - they need some black in them as well to break them up.

That setup would go VERY well in a black truck. It would look high end fo 'sho.

If you buy these, you would have to get a set of boots, a matching belt and buckle, and maybe even a hat band out of the same stuff. Then you could go rock the clubs in style.

That's fancy. Im not really into fancy, but if I was a fancy kinda guy then I guess I'd be all over it. fancy

They can dye ostrich so i am thinking it is ORANGE. I don't like it that much, but it gives a stock truck that $30K custom look. The seat is faux ostrich but doors and dash are real, so that ain't cheap. $900, I'd rather COW on my seats, but you can't get custom material and covers done that cheap. If it floats your boat it is a good deal I think, I love Orange and Black, so I am sorta biased

Never really been a fan of ostrich, but there ARE some good looking interiors out there that use it. This stuff looks pretty good. I agree w/the earlier post that the door panels need some black to break them up. But if I had a black truck or a black/orange combo like the one that was on Fleabay a while back, this would be pretty tempting!

OH ya....
