Your car is everything I been looking for in a Cutty. I like the taillights and wing together. I wish I'd bought smaller tips and reccessed them a couple more inches.

 

I have a leather question for all or any w-body.

When you guys have the leather option in your cars, like you have toastemcutlass, is the center console pad leather also?

 

Mine is vinyl and cracked with a hole and I want to redo it in leather. I think I can even use the rear console pads from the rear buckets in the GP and Cuttyz in my 91. Same shape just have to put the pad over my plastic frame insert. I'd even settle for an 88 to 90 velour one.

* DROOL * I really need to get those clear markers made for the front... I've been such a slacker! Great job ToastEm, rock out and screw those others who don't think a 'grandpa' coupe could come close to their ride. Let em' eat your dust!

With cloth interior, I've got the vinal (cracked too) and I'm going to bring it to a automotive interior specialist in town to re-cover it. That might be the way to go. It looks simple since its bolted together and come right apart with minimal effort.

Just a Question, I noticed you only had tint on the two small back windows. Why? Wouldn't it look better with all the windows tinted except the windshield? Or do you have a law against that where you live? Im just curious as to why you did that! Nice car tho! Love it!

its not illegal to have tint on the back windows but it is illegal for the front windows. and yeah i also think it would look better with the back tinted too but not that im a puss but if you have ever tried driving a car with dark tint at night it pretty much sucks(backing up) and also to see what type of car is behind you, like a cop. like i said im not a puss but have driven cars with dark tint all around and dont care for it at night.

That sux! police here in Ontario aren't bad at all from what I know of. Alot of my friends have 5% tint all the way around and haven't been bothered by the police at all. I wouldn't want 5%, but yah they don't seem to care too much here! It's GREAT! :D

Yeah Illinois is full of stupid laws about window tint. I live there, and the police are real picky about window tint and a few other things. :) :) :)

 

If memory serves me correctly, only cars made after 84? are subject to that particular law in IL. Ex post factos and all.

Eh, unless you got a custom armrest reupholsterer...(sp?) you've got vinyl!!!!!!!! And just to prove the point, my armrest was from the car I got the seats from, a '94 SL

It has to be if it's factory. Hell even your seats are vinyl, look at the sides and backs of the buckets. they don't call it "LEATHER SEATING SURFACES" for nothing!!!

thats true but the console is still leather, the side interior panels are not and the backs of the seats are not but the console top is definitley leather.

ok. You can take apart the bottom of the armrest with 6 bolts and take a look at the underside and see that it's not leather. Unless someone got it reupholstered before you got the car, Cutlass Supreme never got a leather center armrest, because believe me if they did, I'd be all over it

I'm not, how the hell does it become ragging because I see a 0-60 of 6.7 on the page? I know people who've put hundreds of dollars of work + computer tuning to a 3.4 and I don't think they're running that fast, so Im wondering. As to the armrest, whatever. Ive been around and know about Cutlass interiors too damn much to have to prove myself.
