Has anyone ever gotten custom leather seats/covers im looking to change up my interior and im starting with either getting leather seats or getting leather seat covers, or if i can buy the leather, cut out the cloth, and install the leather. What do you guys think is the best route to go? im not exactly rich so yeah...and if you have gotten the leather seat covers are they any good? i want to get a white/blue leather combination in my seats. You guys know any good custom websites?

Pull your original seat covers completely apart stitch by stitch, then layout each piece of material onto the new fabric you'll be working with, cut it then sew your new pieces together.

I could show you how the process goes on making your own covers once and it'll make sense. After the 20th try it might start looking decent. Kinda like welding. Someone can "show" you how and then go out and buy a welder but, it ain't gonna be pretty for a while. Also got to have the proper machine to stitch heavy materials. Better off buying some pre made.
