Rep Power: 328 I had mine done when Ibought mine, and the honda dealer did it. It cost me $1350 through them. hey bought the leather from katzkin. You can now buy the replacements in solids, two or three tone, made to fit our cars direct from katzkin.

They use top notch leather. They'll even send you samples if you want to pick your colors with them. Just call them and request samples, and then pick colors, and call back and order. I think you can get then entire car for around $800 or so, at least last time I checked (front and rear seats). You remove your factory seat covers (the ugly *** cloth) and replace it with these. They're easy as cake to install, and it'll save you the money on labor. That's what the majority of leather shops would do anyway. Just make sure you request they send you a yard of extra leather to match so you can do your doors to match.

Rep Power: 0 I am getting leather as well. A shop in Phoenix quoted my friend 1000 for his new 4 door accord. Thats not bad. He ended up gettin stuff dipped in CF and seats done in leather. But I am thinking for my coupe, I could call the same place and probably around 800-1000, and I bet they do an awesmoe job! Call different palces that do upholstery, even interior, and see what they can do for ya!
