Default IS-F Seats

I have a 2008 Lexus Is-F with the alpine White interior and the driver seat is completely worn out. If anyone else have this issue what did you do? Did you get it reupholstered if so where did you get the parts to do so. Thanks in advance for the help.

Pictures? How much did it run you for both front seats?

New covers from Lexus are $1500 per seat for top and bottom. Pictures? Look at any brochure, they look identical to OEM.

I debated over getting the Alcantara after riding in a 2012 model for a pretty extended road trip, but bought the original 2008 covers mostly because I had no desire to change all four seats to the newer covers.

That said, the Alcantara is a whole lot grippier than the original smooth leather.
