Nice. Is the texture of the leather the same as stock. I notice how the chevy has a softer feel to it that the pontiacs.

Hell no, it's 500x better than the stock leather. Really soft and thick. Not hard and plastic like the factory stuff.

I was going to get some, and then didn't make up my mind in time.

Can I ask how much they ended up costing? If you don't want to say, that's cool. Just thought I would ask to see if I should put that on the plans for down the road.

They look awesome, and if they are as soft as you say, that's way cool.

Are they on yet?

Cannibal,

[edit] Doh - thats "AQ9" seats, not QU9 seats... /slaps forehead

any chance you have the QU9 lumbar seats?

My black/orange leather came in over the weekend, and I ran into trouble when trying to do the front seats. The plastic bellows on the side of the QU9 seats is *sewn* into the leather...just curious if you had the same issue, and if you were able to sew the new leather onto them with no problems?
Shane - 1/2 way thru the ebony/orange conversion...

Cool. QU9 is the power lumbar & side bolster option. Looks like the wife will be able to sew my new leather onto the plastic bellows, so we should be good to go here.

For those who asked, the leathers come from www.autoleathers.com . They were having a group purchase thru most of July...

I was under the impression that those seats were "AQ9"...

Oh well, from looking at mine, those "bellows" section appear to be more cosmetic than anything else, and prone to scratch at that. My preference would be to just do away with them in favor of smooth, soft leather!

I would have loved to get in on that GP to get a set of neutral(taupe) covers with Navy Blue perforated inserts for my Z28.....but since I'm in the middle of a big deck project at home, the cash just wasn't there.....
