blownengine Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 Katzkin isn't too expensive if you want to do it yourself. They do all the cutting and sewing, you just slip it on.

If they have your pattern, yes. They dont fit as tight as an upholsterer can get with a good pattern, but they are cheap and decent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DRCinc Posted June 24, 2012 Report Share Posted June 24, 2012 I know a Guy that works with an upholster at a shop. He is gonna redo my seats on his spare time. I got 2 hides of leather and 4 stingray hides for about $700. I'll post some pics when I get back from work. Each hide is about 50 square feet, so I should be good with one hide for just the seats and imma use the other one for miscellaneous parts! And yeah, I'm in LA. So its coming out to like $1k for everything? Material and labor? I drive out there pretty often. A whole lot more to do out there than where I'm at.
