Default What to do about stock seats?

So, I the middle seam in my driver seat is pulling out. It has maybe a 4 inch slit in the middle of it. Does anyone sell an oem style cover (one that would match passenger), or can an upholstry shop handle the perforated leather? How do people typically handle this?

I don't know how much you want to spend, but I saw a while back someone who had pix of the seats after they were reapholstred and it looked amazing! Just like new, but with much higher quality leather. I can't find the thread, but maybe someone else knows what I am talking about and point it out for you.

here's the Hawks upholstery kit for $425 on my 95 T/A. i had to have my old upholstery's side "accordian" pieces for the bolsters sewn into the new fabric.

The Hawk's looks good. Did you buy the front and back as a set? I noticed it's a little loose in some places, did it tighten up over time?
