Two tone leather installed- pics- YAY!

I just got my two-tone leather installed and I love it. It cost $1000 installed, out the door. The colors match perfectly and the place that installed it even took pics to send into Katzkin because they thought it looked so good (not to brag).

Anyhow, I got the full leather puddy and platinum two-tone kit. Here it is:

Still waiting to do the door inserts, as that is the hardest part

I don't have the patience to install them myself. I would have gone with the group buy, but what I wanted ended up being like $600 or so I think. Installation would have been $400. Instead, I just took the group buy price to a local shop and had them match it. $1000 out the door included installation, door inserts, and a full warranty if ANYTHING goes wrong with them. This is something I wanted done right the first time.

Those look great Maxdoogie! It's interesting how you pattern is different. Maybe it is because you are a 2K?

I was thinking the same thing..I believe our seats are identical, so the pattern they used may be the only difference..Mine are Katzkin, do you know which brand leather they used for yours? That may be the difference

Well as long as everybody is piggy-backing on this thread, here are some of my pics - I got charcoal gray with same color perforated inserts. I did the install in small increments over 4-5 days about a month ago. They smell great and are very comfy but probably not as comfy as Asu's!!

Here's the back seat and you can also see the matching leather door insert: . Here are the passengers seat and drivers side seat .

Those look very nice!! Does the perforated leather help with heat problems?

Thanks MaxDoogie - your's look really comfy as well! The perforated part is just for looks, but I guess it could help a little in summer.

So Andy...does your wife know yet?

Very sweet...I'm thinking of doing that to mine now. I have black with gray interior. Probably get black leather and gray as two-tone.

Actually, she wanted the leather even more than I did. They are honestly more comfy than our couches.

Sleepermax- those look great, although I can't tell what color combo you used by those pics. Black and dark grey?

Black leather with Silver leather inserts would look great...I believe it is the setup Kev is running, too

Thanks for the compliments, guys

They're the same color, all dark graphite. They look better in person though and feel GREAT!

Re: Two tone leather installed- pics- YAY!

Nice! Your kits look just like mine (same 2-tones color). I got mine installed for $600 plus $200 for 2-front heated seats. The leatherseat covers were from SoftTrim (saw there logo on the back of the front seat). This was done by one of the max.org member in December. So far, I got a lot of compliments for it.
