the head rests are pretty tight, you couldnt get any tighter, its just how the leather sits when it's bent.

the leather will settle a bit, its still got a few creases and what not.

thanks guys glad you like it!
i just want to put them in already.

i just hope there isn't much rain tomorrow!

also prices for this.

for all seats, embossed logos on all seats, perforated centres in the seats, gear stick cover, console cover and handbrake cover = $1,000.

It only took about 3 weeks from when i ordered, very quick considering it's almost xmas.

would recommend, i'm very happy with what i was given.

yeah but it's not made here i don't think.
pretty sure they'd send the order over to china or some where and get it done for hell cheap and send it back.

beats paying thousands in labour for someone else to do it for you!

exactly.
it's not cheap at all, i was actually pretty surprised at how good it was.

but if i have any problems at least i didn't spend thousands and thousands on someone doing it for me.
i'm happy with it so far, so hopefully the rest all goes to plan!

Is the leather trim one of those e-bay leather seat covers that just goes over the top of the original trim? Or did you send your seats somewhere?
If it’s an e-bay job then it looks better than I would have expected.

i remember in street machine a few years back there was a EB GT replica who spend thousands and thousands on a leather interior and shipped in the leather from another country, it had rips in the rear seat, stitching coming undone and had manual window winders but the car was fitted with all the electric window switches... that bit was weird, if your spent soo much on the trims you would have had one of the holes covered over...

Yeah the dude who got it for me does sell via ebay.
If you get a decent color, perforated centres in the seats it looks pretty good.
Beats spending thousands on an auto image place.

If anything goes to s**t or tears, i only spent 1k on them.
I'm happy to see how they go, they sure are comfy and alot sexier!

Have you got any pics of the covers before they went on, showing the back/ inside of the covers and the method used to secure them to the seats??
