Pics of RED high back buckets in velour or vinyl?

I have a set of factory high backs I want to recover and install in my 85 c10. The interior in it is decent but I want buckets to go along with the new drivetrain I have for it. I was looking at the covers that LMC has. You can either get vinyl or velour with vinyl sides. I really like the velour and thats what I want but I can't say that I have ever seen them in a truck. I don't want it to look like a conversion van haha. Does anyone have any pics of high back buckets covered in red vinyl or the fabric?? I wanted to use the LMC to save me some money. I think I was quoted around $500 to recover my seats by a pro. WHAT DO YOU THINK??? Here is my interior and the color I want.

Those are the same ones I intend to buy for mine. I think the trick to them is to have them professionally installed so they are nice and tight.

Comfy, yes
Quality, yes as far as stitching and fitment but the the velour material is starting to show a little wear, I do drive it 7 days a week though.
