seats

You could do the main part of the seat that gets the most wear and tear in fake suede (called Alcantraz or Instyle Suede in Australia). You could then do the sides and the back of the seat in leather. The fake suede is very durable, light and easy to wash.

I have done my whole interior in white leather and Instyle blue suede. 96 Del Sol.

Just a suggestion. Good luck

the difference that you'll get is sooooo minute... that its not gonna make ne difference...

heres the real problem with real leather....
when you sit on them on a hot day, it will get warped so thats why you see people sitting on towels or clothes so it doesnt ruin it...... your just better off using vinyl to wrap just the seats....
not just that but its also cheaper too

The instyle suede is extremely comfortable to sit on in hot weather. Highly recommend it. You must have something similar over there in the States.

Real suede is not durable enough. Real leather and vinyl is sticky in the heat. Not a good idea if it is a daily driver. Depends if you want looks over comfort I suppose.

depending on th amout of money you want to spend will play onthe method to use as well..
vinyl/cloth will be less expensive..
Leather/suede will be more..

Each can look good if installed right..But you need to contact some local shops and get some prices to go from...
