Upholstering e30 seats for my e28 (Pacific blue)

[fresh_TD]

Started upholstery work on the e30 seats I picked up today from Gaelan (roguetoaster). These are going in my e28. Going from electric seats to manual. The e30 seats also weigh a lot less. Progress so far.

Using red Alcantara for bolsters..yes its real alcantara :-)

Wow, that's going to look great! Good luck on keeping it looking fresh, make sure you follow the producer's guidelines for cleaning any oils/stains. Alcantara can get nasty fast if not taken care of.

Interesting. I'm looking forward to seeing the final fitment. There have been other people who were curious about the quality of covers from that seller but as I recall nobody had experience.

Some have wrote bad reviews about this seller, but it was about his customer service, not his product itself.
