Very very nice. That color combo matches perfectly with your GS. They did an amazing job installing and fitting into your car

1 ? I had though, you had to have custom pieces made on the sides to match the plastic part at the bottom of the seat? Was that something that was done by leatherseats or by the shop that installed this for you?

The uplostry shop has a huge selection of colors which they found to match the plastic pieces in the car. The bottom of my seats were getting scuffed from getting in and out of the car so I had them wrap them to look like new. Leatherseats did not supply a piece for that section of the seat however, they do send you extra material so you could technically use the extra material for the bottom of the seat. However, it would only match the seats and not the plastic trim pieces.

I see now. I was thinking that they wrapped the side part of the seat in a different color leather, but they wrapped the plastic seat part where the controls are. I just noticed it from your pics when I looked VERY closely. That looks excellent. On my drivers seat that part has 2 small scuffs on it, does anyone know how to get those off?

Guys, some of you have requested via PM that I show pics of the rear seats so tomorrow I'll snap a few. All I can say is that everything came out better than I expected...

yeah, the headerst w/ monitors came out good (not perfect). The leather is thicker so making the cut and tuck for the monitors was tough to do. Still, I'm very happy how everything came out. It's so funny how **** I am about getting into the car now. I'm so afraid that I may scuff or rip the suede... LOL

I'm sure you're feeling the same way..
