Very nice!

shadoquad 06-03-2010 08:24 AM

I'm also very curious about price. I'd like to do the same with mine eventually.

1 Katzkin Tuscany Amaretto Kit with leather face $995.00 $995.00
0 Upgrade to All-Leather Seats $1,000.00
1 Perforated Combo $0
1 Contrast Double Stitching in Black $0
2 Heated Seat Kit $147.50 $295.00
0 Standard Katzkin vinyl color matched door panel $0
1 Upgrade door pannel with factory like stitching $200.00 $200.00
1 Upgrade door pannel all-leather Tuscany $395.00 $395.00
1 Supplies and waste $8.95 $8.95
Sub Total $1,893.95
MD Tax $113.64
Total $2,007.59

Here is the breakdown of cost, I copied it from a spreadsheet so it did not format very well. I had a shop by me do it but I did the new button panel myself. About $600 of the total went into upgrading the doors. The standard Katzkin just wraps around the top and I did not think it looked very nice. The feel of the real leather is very buttery!

I rode in his car from the airport to his dealership. It looks great with the red car.

I would recomend the upgrade to the Tuscany leather, it's much softer and smoother than the standard and it comes in black also.

Wow very nice!

Hey Rdavidw. I live in Reston, VA. I love what you did with the seats and door inserts.

Joka4411 09-14-2010 09:55 PM

Wow Real Nice

Red__Zed 09-14-2010 10:02 PM

Nice. Looks clean!

LONDON2012 10-23-2010 03:52 PM

I really like the look of your leather. I ordered a sample of the chocolate leather from leatherseats.com and I would describe the texture as that of a football. Really tiny dots of texture. Your seats look smoother. Best way I can describe how your seats look to me is like a brown old school pilot leather jacket. What's the texture of your seats actually like(not theperforation, but the smooth parts) ?

Thanks.

Waiz 10-23-2010 06:47 PM

Old thread but but nice job OP!!

rdavidw 10-24-2010 08:34 AM

It’s hard to get a feel for leather colors from photos or even small swatches. My Katzkin Tuscany Amaretto is a bit like an brown old school pilot leather jacket, but maybe not as dark. I was looking for a old classic car color combo. The seats are very soft. Hope that helps.

370zHawaii 10-31-2010 04:31 AM

Your seats look amazing, quick question for you or maybe I am not looking in the right spots, but did you install the heated/cool seat kit yourself and where can we get that from if available? TIA:tiphat:

I want a Z 10-31-2010 10:05 AM

awesome, which that was a stock choice

eastwest2300 08-13-2011 10:36 AM

Dude, I looove the seats, excellent job. The cost sucks, but the product is perfect!
