    Tan Leather Cabrio Upholstery Set $350

    Bought this kit and I am not happy with the fit. I installed the rear and 1/2 of the drivers seat before I said screw it and took it back off. There the few issues I have with it are:
    Color is a few shades off from my Natur. Looks like closer to Pearlbeige to me.
    Stiching is not identical to OE (bolsters are not double stiched for example)



    There are several pictures in that listing. You can see that the fit is not quite the factory fit they claim(waves in the rear seat, thigh bolsters are bunched up looking). However if your not as obsessive about your interior, ya cant beat new leather for $350.

    Can't you just pull and staple 'till its nice and tight? I don't know much, but that seems reasonable.

    Oh yeah free bump!

      therefore, their value is much greater.

        That's exactly why i have given up on the reupholster option. Ill never be happy with it so i might as well through in some other seats and dye to match. With me its either exact sano or moded..

        But like you said for 350 you can beat it. Great deal and bump for you :)

            Well it isnt to say that this wouldn't look fine when installed, it is just that it will never look OE correct. Theres more of a problem with my brain than with the upholstery. Honestly once it is in not many people would notice the difference in stiching...I'm just retardedly psychotic :D
