Anybody ever upgraded the whip with katzkin or other aftermarket leathers? Worth it? How much did it cost?
>>29106263>spending money to reupholster shitbox seatsplease tell me people don't actually do this
>>29106267I don't drive a shitbox, you're in the wrong thread
>>29106268well you clearly don't drive something with nice seats if you're considering something like that
>>29106273Incorrect. They're nice, but not nice nice. You wouldn't understand upgrading something that isn't full of holes and falling apart
>>29106279>You wouldn't understand upgrading something that isn't full of holes and falling apartyou're right, I wouldn't understand pissing away money "upgrading" my perfectly fine seats.
>>29106286>being poorOf course you wouldn't understand
>>29106279>They're nice, but not nice nice.Basically this. If your current seats are in bad condition, katzkin basically makes OEM quality seats that aren't installed in 20 minutes. You'll need a hog ring tool, disassembly and removal of seats from your specific car, maybe a steamer, and generally know how to install seat fabric. If you're looking for some really good luxury stuff, you're going to a custom shop and paying more than $5000 per seat.
>>29106309>noooooooo you're poor!evidently not since my car seems to have nicer seats than yours.
>>29106334Your seats are full of holes and shart stains. Your tires are bald. Your windows aren't tinted. Your brakes sound like a train stopping. Your windshield wipers are 3 years old and leave more streaks than your cloth seats have on them. Your intake air is not cold. Your exhaust remains muffled. Your tires are chinese. Your dash looks like a christmas tree with all the lights on. And that's all if you even own a car, which you don't. And to top it all off, you cope for being a poorfag by saying that if I upgrade my car at all, I'm actually the one driving a shitbox. I'm done with you.
>>29106342uh oh, melty! what exactly are you driving btw?
>>29106334post seats, you wont.
>>29106263Only covers I ever ran were some Carhartts on a truck. Was ok but I would be wary of any pleather options. Just buy a nicer seat from a higher trim
>>29106342Seething mederchod bitch bastard.

>>291062632010 Lariat, heated and cooled front seats.Three years ago it was $1600 installed.
>>29106352this guy >>29106367 isn't me, these are my seats. like i said, perfectly fine
>>29106394lets see your seats with a timestamp
>>29106263Just buy new seats
>>29106364it's maderchod, you stinky dalit>>29106394kek
>>29106367Horrendous overly bolstered form over function trash
>>29106562>overly bolstered form over function trashshould I get a bench seat installed in my sports car instead?
>>29106566yes because then you can do bench presses. mobile gyms rock!
>Hey Anon, over here! Come on, take a seat. Put the seat heater on and relax...
>>29106263Had my war-torn vinyl seats re-covered with Newton Commercial cloth covers. £310.74, plus I had a guy fit them for me for £100, so just over £410.74 all in. Worth every penny, extremely comfy and *very* plush feeling. Friendship ended with LEATHER, now CLOTH is my best friend.
I put $300 Amazon seat covers over my mav seats immediately when I bought it. They were a bitch to install and their fitment isn't great, you can get them looking like the pictures and most people won't notice but you'll know where it doesn't fit perfectly after installing. Took me like 3 m hours to get them in properly.Overall very happy I just did $300 seat covers instead of paying $7000 more for a Lariat
>>29106367i'll be honest those are nice seats7.5/10 i dont like the big red stripe and it's a bit worn out in the cheeks area, otherwise p nice
I don't think katzkin is actually leather, but nonetheless I've used them and the quality of fit is fantastic.
>>29106263That looks chintzy as fuck.>LeatherThat's not leather, that's polyurethane.>>29106938Very nice, anon.
>>29107242>>29107288Katzkin sells more than 1 material. They have everything from OEM cloth, aftermarket washable, pleather, alligator skin, to real leather. Just depends how much you want to pay for it. As someone who sold and watched hundreds of katzkin installations, its funny seeing people claim to know what it is.
