I wonder if the eBay vinyl console covers are any good.

http://www.ebay.com/itm/NEW-LEXUS-GS...0d30e2&vxp=mtr

I tried re-painting mine with a leather restoration kit, but the results were poor. Maybe this product would be a better alternative.

That vinyl/leather mix cover is a waste of time, especially if your car get hot inside. I'll take some pics of mine -- its starting to crack at the elbow area.

My ride is a 98 GS4 and the interior started to get a lil dull and faded also, so I bought some carbon fiber vinyl and me and my girl wrapped certain parts of the interior ourselves. I also ordered a shift **** from Sewell.

Looks nice, do you have any pics of it installed?

The leather on my arm rest has slowly weathered away in a particular area and i would be looking to replace it some way

Ok, here you go. I matched the console to the darker grey tone of the interior instead of the lighter grey it originally came in.
