I ordered a pair of cashmere seats with zenith hard backs about three months ago. Sadly Waldemar's father recently passed away, so there's a bit of a backlog. But based upon the progress photos that I just received today, it appears to be worth the wait!

Nice foxman! Did he send pics of the back frames? I'd like to see what the modifications look like. I got a set of black crested covers from him 28 months ag0 and they are beautiful.

Thanks Onami, great to hear that you were pleased with the seats. I think you can see glimpse of one of the seat back frames in the second photo above. I will reach out to Waldemar for more photos.

Posting up a few more pics of the cashmere seats I ordered. Almost finished and ready for shipping. The quality and craftsmanship appears to be excellent. Waldemar clearly takes great pride in his work.

They sure look great. Hope they pass the 20-year wear and tear test like my OEM HBs

Foxman, those look great and now on my hit list as well. Hmmm painted (Aventurine) or unpainted? Will you also redo the rest of the interior if not a close enough match?

Aventurine and cashmere....painted of course! It will make those seats pop. The leather comes from the OEM supplier and should be a perfect match. My only concern is that the seats look SO GOOD I may need to pull up and replace all the interior carpeting to look as nice as the seats.
