    I have used Leatherseats.com to recover seats for all of my former exotic cars and they were great. They came through again for my worn out seats from my 2000 360. I customized these seats with Top Grain Italian leather, red double stitching, and alcantara inserts going down the middle.



    I simply shipped my seats to them and they refinish them with brand new leather/alcantara, and ship them back to me.



    They are done fabricating the covers and will be installing on my seats this week. Very excited.



    I will post pics of the actual seats when they ship them back.

    I would highly recommend Leatherseats.com. This is the third set of seats they have done for me, and the workmanship is always top notch.

    Nice. But what about poor folks who do not live in the states? Afe we vale to pick up a set of covers, ship them over and get an upholstery place to fit it?

    Actually, for one of my previous cars, I just had them send the covers, and I installed them myself. It was not difficult because they send instructions, but it was time consuming. It was a fun weekend project.

    Now that Leatherseats.com has done my seats, they will have a template for the leather covers and can probably just make one and mail it to you. All you have to do is install or take it to a local upholstery shop to install.

    I paid one arm and one leg because they did not have a template for the 360 and used my seats as the guinea pig. Since they now have a template, they should be able to crank these out.... not sure how much they will charge. In any event, it depends on the options (stitching, alcantara, leather grade etc). Give Eric a call and get a price quote. He's great to deal with and very professional.

    I've used these guys for 3-4 of my own cars and on many friends cars. Great fit and quality every time.

    these look very well done. I like the red stitching against the blk leather, very nice indeed.

    Omg! You mean you sent them your seats? I thought they made the covers for y and you were going to get them put on. Wow! I'm impressed! Very very nice!

    For my other cars, I could have just ordered the covers and installed them myself, but leatherseats.com never did a Ferrari 360 before and they needed my seats as a template. Now that they have the template, they plan on making covers and selling them to anyone brave enough to try to install themselves. I have done it before, and it is not difficult. Fun weekend project.
