Embroidery on Interior

[mgmsleeper]

has anyone tried any different interior customizing as far as different stitching in the seats? anything in the headrest etc...?

It has been done. Just a matter of pulling the covers off the headrests and taking it ti someone who can do it.

+1 might be a lil hot lol.

i may have godhead redone to color match the car along with "MARAUDER" in the headrest ...nothing fancy just to bring color to the inside.
if i get even more bored i'll redo all of the stitching to color match the car also

I think just the stitching red looks real good.

RED on yours ...DTR for mine :D

ive been thinking about having my headrests embroidered. either with my last name or the "V8" symbol. also, im not sure how easy it is, but they sell professional leather dye kits to two tone your leather with. looks easy enough on youtubez.

Unless you're totally flat backed, you won't even know they're there.
Use the wheel center caps. They fit perfectly.

Nice, had to use the zoom to take it down to 30% to see it fully.
Can you resize the pics on the site.

*UPDATE*

Talked to my buddy at the shop and the "MARAUDER" design will be 1" tall and 4.5" long.

headrest got dropped off about an hour ago and should be done in a few. Pics will follow!

-another degree for the "MARAUDER" (possibly 20-25)
-GodHeads only
-MARAUDER arched over top the godhead
-MERCURY(top arch), Godhead (center), MARAUDER(bottom arch)

Awesome! It would be cool if there was a way to do it in an imprint like the godshead, but I don't know how that could be done.

I'm thinking attaching the chrome Ford "V8" emblem to my headrests. Any thoughts? Has anybody seen such a thing?

[mgmsleeper]

haven't seen anything. try it and go from there. you'll never know till you try. it's all personal taste.

Hang one with some tape or string and look at it for a while. If you like, attach - if not, remove and no big deal. I've been thinking of something to use that is different but appropriate. The V8 would work, I was thinking of Ford Racing, etc. I don't think the Blue Oval would be appropriate as it is a Merc after all. Anyone have any other ideas??? :help:
