DIY: Custom Seats *Pics Re-hosted*

Wow that is very very pimp! Looks good and I can imagine are comfy as hell!

^ bump to answer some PM’s

Only 2 suppliers carry actual Alcantara (it’s a brand name) One is “Gulf Fabrics” in Florida ( http://www.gulffabrics.com/ ) . The other is in NYC, but i forget the name.

I picked up some my Alcantara from the UK because it had a foam backing on it:

it was $90/yard. Without the foam backing, it was about $80/yard from the stateside shops.

:tup:

:tup: Nice work as always.

:tup:… <3 your DIY

** Also wondering about the ac?

looks great!

merged to include all the OG discussion points.

looks good man !

nice.

good work man save some $$$ for sure

not quite… after everything was send and done. I think they were somewhere in the neighborhood of $1200 for the pair. That doesn’t factor my time into it either. But i didn’t make them with the intention of saving money.

how much was it to get the seats re upholstered?

i think it was $600-$700… and the alcantara was around $400.

fuck… i might as well just buy new seats lol…

im assuming because u actually used a nice fabric, i just want mine done in plain old cloth

mainly because the design was custom as well. I drew out where i wanted the seams/stitching to be. It wasn’t like recovering a seat where they took the old covers off and used them as a template.

ATM Restyle FTW! btw.

ah yes i see where that would totally make a difference, would u happen to know if they do carpet upholstry as well?

lol… i should be asking the company these things instead of you

dude, if you are just looking for the new upholstery for the seats, you can get everything pre-stitched from www.leatherseats.com
