View Full Version : Leather
Alexandriasrx8 04-28-2009, 01:18 PM :)heyy guys i'm looking for some leather seats. i want to take the cloth out of mine and put hot pink and black leather seats in it.. i'll post some pics of my car l8r on. jus let me know if u have any suggestions about it
kersh4w 04-28-2009, 01:22 PM you wont find hot pink/black seats in the for sale section. you'll need to go to a custom upholstery shop.
mscamp02 04-28-2009, 01:25 PM ^what your wanting is going to take someone alot of time to do and you alot of money to do
kersh4w 04-28-2009, 01:29 PM not really. its just a matter of ordering the leather kit and then dying it.
it will probably be over $1000 though.
Alexandriasrx8 04-28-2009, 01:31 PM u think it'll cost that much?
G3tR3DDY2GR3DDY 04-28-2009, 03:20 PM i got a quote for white/black two tone for 1200 bucks. you can find a little cheaper. Best bet would be to buy from katskinz.com the color you want for like 600 i think then pay someone to put them on your current seats.
buying leather seats off here will cost you about a grand then another grand for the custom colors..
ms70616 04-28-2009, 05:36 PM wow thats crazy i got a quote from a place up here in VA that would do black and white two tone in mine for 700.
G3tR3DDY2GR3DDY 04-28-2009, 08:08 PM i went with mazdaspeed seats instead ;)
still at 700 she has to buy the seats first for a good 800-1000
Razz1 04-28-2009, 08:30 PM I would say 400 to 800 bucks if you can find a sweet shop in your area.
That's what others have paid.
Don't you have foriegn low cost shops out there?
Alexandriasrx8 04-28-2009, 08:45 PM yeah theres some body shops in my area but expensive out the butt.. im going to get some rims for it in a couple months.. yal think there is any other way to go with the seats or that leather will look way better?
Bunique 04-28-2009, 08:48 PM I got quoted 350ish to recover my rear seats, but that was with me supplying my own material.
By some Brides....lol jk
Alexandriasrx8 04-28-2009, 08:51 PM hummm well idk i guess i need to just look around before i just jump an buy something
Bunique 04-28-2009, 08:53 PM hummm well idk i guess i need to just look around before i just jump an buy something
Ya that would prolly be smart. Just remember, sometimes you get what you pay for.
Alexandriasrx8 04-28-2009, 08:56 PM yeahh my bro has a g5 and has done like everything possible to car to make it look good w/o going overboard with it but he dont to much know alot about the 8
Bunique 04-28-2009, 08:59 PM I'd prolly check out what katskin offers. Do you want like a hot pink "suede" in the center and black on the outside?
Alexandriasrx8 04-28-2009, 09:00 PM yeah i think thatll look good... u think suede would look just as good as leather?
Bunique 04-28-2009, 09:04 PM In my opinion, it will look good. There are others who have recovered there seats with suede I believe. Should look good as long as you don't over do the pink.
Alexandriasrx8 04-28-2009, 09:08 PM yeah suede might look just as good.. i kind of think my jus regualr cloth is is boring or for me it is
Bunique 04-28-2009, 09:17 PM yeah suede might look just as good.. i kind of think my jus regualr cloth is is boring or for me it is
Pm'd you some stuff. ya the regular cloth is a lil boring.
G3tR3DDY2GR3DDY 04-28-2009, 10:27 PM thread should probably be moved now.
go to katskinz.com get a quote
then go to local shop get a quote
otherwise just deal with what you got
you should come to the roebling road event this weekend in savannah :)
kanedrz 04-29-2009, 12:27 PM I seen a chick with a Louie Vuitton interior in her RSX and that shit looked hot. It was mostly black wit pink logos. She paid around $1600
Alexandriasrx8 04-29-2009, 02:32 PM well see i think it would look good lol.. but i guess ill wait a little while before i buy something.. i know im for sure getting rims in a month or so.. but whats all going on in savannah?
Bunique 04-29-2009, 11:53 PM maybe someone knows.....how do you get a quote on the katzkin.com site? I didn't see a way where one could get a quote.
