Talking New Leather Installed In 05 Base

just got the Z back with new installed leather. still has a few wrinkles, but they said all will stretch out within a couple of days with sitting in them and the heat. i personally think they are awesome, what about you all? BTW, got this done @ Express Accessories in Pensacola, FL and they did a sweet install for OTD $747. and the leather is CST (classic soft trim) in "pumpkin" color.

wow...its like between burnt orange and tan...pretty nice I must say.

The only thing that's bothering me is the wrinkles...hope they will turn out good after the wrinkle's gone.

that was my main concern, but this shop actually does the installs for all the local dealerships as well and they assured me they will come out! i have seen a lot of their previous work, and all came out perfect!

I have been in Pcola so much it's like a second home lol.

Do you have heat on the seats or is the leather simply a new skin?

The seats look great!

I have an '05 Enthusiast and like the carbon cloth seats. But if they start wearing badly, I'll be upgrading to leather. That price you got sound pretty awesome. I was thinking it would be like $1500. Might be worth a trip to LA (southern joke for you CA guys) to get it done!

Dang you live here. How come I haven't seen your car yet? Have you hung with any of the boys in the Panhandle Z's? Mike (Silver), Jaime (White, heavily modded ZEALOUZ), or Ray (Silver, Vorteched backagain). PM me so I can check it out some time. You been to www.racingpensacola.com ?

If the wrinkles don't go away, try adding an extra layer of foam. That's what my installer did.

Thumbs up Seats or Covers? Look so good Can't tell.

Just for clarification... (Because of how good it looks.) You got new leather seats right? Not just Covers? I like how they made it look like it's factory leather seats! (If they aren't covers) Looks good. *Thumbs up*
