Re-upholstering FC Seats

So I am currently attending Wyotech here in PA, doing their Heavy Duty Diesel program, and my friend that lives with me offered to re-upholster my seats as long as I pay for the fabric and all materials.
He is in the Trim and Upholstery class and Ive seen his work, it is top notch, and they can get any material you want at stupid cheap prices.
So my thinking was to do them in STI black cloth, the one that grips you really well, and on the back right under the headrest a red embroidered rotor under the headrest.
Let me know what you guys think, also maybe someone can give me another color to add to the black since my FC is black with a blue interior.
Thanks

O I can do that myself, the duplicolor paint works really well, but thats something I'll do once I have plenty of time, maybe over Christmas break or something. I am very **** about stuff like that, I want it to look good and be good work.
Dont like cheap parts or jobs.

They could do cloth seats into leather and add bolster if you want, their shop is pretty nice. Thanks for the compliments, hopefully I can get this to go throug.

Well the seats are off to be re upholstered in black microsuade with blue stitching and raised bottom bolsters. I will post pics up as soon as I get the passenger one back.
