Two-Tone Leather Installed
I got the leather from Leather Trim Ltd in Dallas, TX. Found a guy in town to install it for $200, instead of the $300 I was quoted everywhere else. It fits great, and with a few days of heat it will shrink and tighten up nicely. Color matches well, will get better with some Meguiars Leather Conditioner. Enjoy.
   PS: For anyone interested, this ran $500 for the two seats and $200 for the install, although I could have done that myself if I had more time.

hehe on the cheaper side... not quite. They use top-quality leather. It is not katzkin or classic soft trim or crap like that. I like my seats more than my moms lincoln aviator seats...
Most places quoted me 1200 installed for Katzkin leather, and 1500 for this kind. The reason I only paid 700 is because I did research, shopped around, found a dealer that has done over 50 Zs and was experienced with the seat pattern, so therefore could make them at a lesser cost. btw chris I got a 350z, cancelled order on the infiniti

It'll look really nice when it tightens up. BTW, I've used Meguiars and Pinnacle leather products and Pinnacle is much nicer of the two.

not bad......i think what above person meant by cheap is how it looks design wise.......looks like those seat covers you can get at pep boys for $40 a pair.
leather is nice but so expensive......not to mention here in socal, its way too damn HOT outside to have leather/vinyl seats..... |

well I let the car sit in the sun today and WOW what a difference a day makes... I will take some more pics later, but I'm moving to college tomorrow so I wont be able to take pics then. I paid for them, just as I paid for my stereo, fatmat, earthing kit, tint, car cover, mask, etc. They paid for most of the car (gparents 20k parents 10k me 1k), and I am paying for the mods... that would be VERY uncool if they paid for the mods, unless it were a christmas present or something...
