What do you think of these covers...I wanted to convert my tan interior to black, and Personally, I think this color would look awesome with the laser red and black interior.

Thanks

I would be all for those if they were all black but yes it will look good for your car.

I would try and find an apholstry( I cant spell) and see how much they want to change to black leather.

Me my drivers seat is ripping and I will prob buy some after market seats.

This company makes all the single colors and MANY combos, including, black with tan in the middle. If I went with the tan/black, I "could" leave my back seats alone, but then the color wouldnt match. I just think that these would look REALLY classy with black carpet and dash, the red accents that are already there, and THESE SEAT Covers.


Boskl. The CHEAPEST I have found for a local place (with insider pricing) is close to $1k for leather covers in two-tone. THe guy there said that the only reason the price is "that high" is because they customize all the sewing for our year. If I dont like the color tones at the local place, I may ask them how much for just the labor, and then buy these ones from the place on Ebay.

Thanks

Those to look nice. Not a bad price either, IIRC stock replacement covers are close to the price for those.

Why not try and find some 10th anv. cobra seats?

wow pricey, do look very nice though.

Leatherseats.com is a great company. Lots of guys in the Lexus community use them. Why not get some good seats tho instead of recovering the stockers? Prob the worst seats ever. Get some Recaro/Sparco or if budget some Corbeaus. Even some 03 cobras would be nice but the black wouldnt match perfect.

Remember thats also with having the foam replaced on all the seats. Which I might be taking mine to that guy also just to replace the foam on the drivers seat side bolster. Seats are great except for that right there but nobody notices that the foam there is slightly collapsed except for me, but it still drives me nuts, I am very finiky with this car, lol.

Im getting mixed signals on the price...."nice price" and "kinda pricey" Putting the "ACTUAL" dollar amt aside, which seems high, Im thinking the price for what I may be getting isnt too bad, because I have been asking and surfing around and the price for leather is not that low. The reason I havent been looking for Cobra seat replacements is that they would NOT be new (leather covers would be new and have new leather smell) and they are DEFINITELY not cheap. I have NO problem with our stock seats....with my previous back surgery, they are perfect for ME. I think these covers are a nice mix of "sporty" and "stock".

Thanks!

its not a bad price RC but i will tell you this i've seem more expensive. I think they aen't bad but if I am gonna spend that much then I'm gonna get Corbeau's for the front and probably remove the rears.

RC I'm sure they love it. Me and my wife have no children as of yet. Unless I have some previous ones wondering around that I don't know about. LOL
I'm gonna keep my rears in storage so I will be able to put them back in later for the reason that you stated.

I said Pricey b/c you can get a set of Corbeau CR1 race seats that are very comfy and look awesome for $800 and those are just a set of covers for $700. Do you have leather seats now? If not would it be cheaper to get a set out of a GT or Cobra?

Ever think of the Corbeau Microsuede?

But there is a HUGE price difference between leather and cloth. How much are Corbeau's in Leather. Because of my back, I wanted to try to keep the comfort of a "stock-type" Seat.

Thanks
