Did you also get the door panels?

How's the leather? Is it thin or thick? Do they go over the cloth or replace the cloth seats?

So many question.

They are sweet, aren't they? I really like the look of the preferated leather on your covers; I wish I would have gotten them. If you need any tips on the install, let me know.

kinda looks like something they had at a bachelor's party!

anyway the logo gives it away as being a fakey. look in hunts point or canal st to pick up something similar at much much cheaper.

What the hell are you talking about? I'm kinda slow, so you're going to spell it out for me.

how exactly do you put on the door inserts, do you have to take the door apart to do it.

Both styles look good. Did any manufacturer offer tan or beige replacements?

Where did you get them. I have people asking me about my seats and they want to know a cheaper option than getting them totally recovered. My seats were converted to leather by Classic Soft Trim. I bought the car like this but I know that it was expensive.

Damn!,

I am really starting to like those seats very much! You've got me thinking now, I would not mind putting those in my Ferrari. Make sure you post some pics of them when you get them installed.

Yes, we can replace factory leather...

Our matching color for the beige factory leather is Sandstone, and our match for the black factory leather is Black. All our leather is automotive grade italian leather and we have 50 colors to choose from.

Exciting UPDATED Group Buy LIST...

Dear Members,

By overwhelming request we are initiating a new group buy for all members of this forum. We have 15 interested members and the list is growing:

1. Dave (1991 Maxima)..........GOYEM159@aol.com
2. Brian Barnes (90 Maxima)....MoNEy4214391@aol.com
3. Dominique Hurley (2kMaxima).1dominiquehurley@excite.com
4. Scott Mcelyea (98 Maxima)...(856)-401-8997
5. Name unknown (2k Maxima)....byykkr@aol.com
6. Gary Tillou (97 Maxima).....Yankz1118@aol.com
7. Huy Dang (95 GXE)...........chosen_asian@yahoo.com
8. Rex Pilliar (4th gen).......rpillai@home.com
9. Jonathan Chong (98 GXE).....triplespam@yahoo.com
10. Phil Stockmal (96 SE).......pstockmal@mail.com
11. Angela Liu (unknown).......AsiaDucati@excite.com
12. Andy Nersesov (97 GXE).....andrey_umass@yahoo.com
13. Matrix (97 Maxima).........matrix_77@hotmail.com
14. Michael Locke (99 GXE).....MLocke@bsquare.com
15. Lance (98 Maxima)..........babyc1999@aol.com
16. Dave Bronson (96 Maxima)...dave_bronson@urscorp.com
17. Turbolaw99 (95 Maxima SE)..turbolaw99@aol.com
18. Param Singh (99 Maxima)....sherpnjbda@yahoo.com
19. Aalok Patel (99 Maxima)....llcoolj6@juno.com
20. Bryan Breaux (97 SE).......breaux124@yahoo.com
21. EZEMaxima (98 Maxima)......unknown
22. Joe (95 SE)................MrBagoda@aol.com
23. Matt Howell (2k SE)........mhowell@nuvox.com

I know there are 23 interested, but that hardly means all will commit. If ten people commit, order, and pay, every member will get 15% off the retail price of $659.00 droping the price to $560.00 + shipping. Two-tone will be FREE and embroidery on the front seats will be FREE as well. In the last group buy 11 members committed but only 5 members bought. We still gave them the 15% off, but that cannot happen this time. Last time it took a month and a half to close the deal, if you guys want this one to close faster you need to contact us asap.

Actually, we recommend...

Leaving the factory cloth on and glueing over it. You will probably never make the finish panel look good, let alone factory, if you don't follow the instructions on the website under installation. Oh, and glueing over the factory cloth insert will not affect duribility, we have done it both ways and we know.
