Here's two shitty pics (cell cam) of my new custom made Nappa leather interior on standard seats.

Note the silver stiches on seats, doors, shift and handbreak.

If anybody is interested in better pictures I could call my friend to take some.

Looks neat. How much did you pay for it?

They offered me a deal that I shouldn't refuse; ? 1,700.

It took 14 square meters of leather and 2,5 days to do it.

The guys who made have done more than 700 cars (and some to Geneva and Frankfurt shows).

Sewn is what I ment, thanks Fin535dA .

So the leather seats are not made in Germany but in Croatia.

My friend took some new pictures with a real camera, find attached.

Hope they turn out better.

Looks top-notch!

Why did you originally want to change the seat material?
