Combo (seat and side panel) = $1250
Seat alone = $700
Side Panel alone = $800 (very hard to do it, takes time)
Thanks for the info. I'll keep this in mind as I decide what I want to do.

Sorry, does this include the materials or just the labor?

First of all - Congratulations on the most beautiful Z interior I have ever seen!
A few questions --
1) Is the gray part real leather?
2) Is the whole thing a custom job, or does Alcantara offer the installer a pre-made kit?
3) Are the seats poofy or wrinkly at all? From the pics, they look great. All the other aftermarket leather jobs I've seen are not as tight as a factory job.. how does this compare?
Thanks!
Mika

Looks really neet and great idea.. To me seems kindof westernish looking "shrug", doesnt seem to match a sports car..

Fabric looks better than stock; maby if I saw it in different colors i'd really like it.. Quality is supurb though.

No, the gray part is not leather. It's alcantara, similar to suede. and this whole thing is custom job.

Man......People can say what they want, but that job is incredible! and for that price....I have got to get involved. I live in at lanta though and was wondering if your guy can produce the materials there so that I can have them installed here? please let me know. Again, judging from the pics, your guy does excellent work!

Well..., I am not sure if you can install it over there. It's custom job. When he did mine, I have to take out the door panel and seat as well. By the time it's done, he brought it to my place and installed it for me. I am not sure if he can just send you the leather seat cover and the leather door panel cover.

I know what you mean......maybe you could ask him anyway just to see what he thinks about the idea.....if it worked, it could be a lot of interest in doing it this way.....and again, thanks for responding.....Dwight

Hey guys i'm not trying to hijack this thread, but I have some factory door panels for sale on ebay. It would make it quite a bit easier for someone to have their door panels recovered. They're in perfect shape. Someone could buy them, have them recovered, then sell their factory ones to the next person. Kind of a core swap system. Anyways, here's the link if anyone is interested.

Wow...., I didn't know that the door panel is so expensive. anyway, I like your idea, but I am not sure who's willing to pay that much for the door panel though? If they do, just let me know, and you guys can ship it to me. Once it's finish, I'll send it back. Sounds good?

makes no sense to me that someone would be willing to pay such a stiff price for extra door panels that they dont need! maybe i missed something there......Little kulin, i was wondering about your original seat covers, were the removed from the car or did he cover over them? if they were removed, he should be able to use them as paterns i would think....let me know....peace

The point would be to have your factory panel to reinstall in the car when you sell it. If you don't care about that, you could have the new panels recovered, then swap them with your factory panels. That way you're not driving your Z without door panels, then after the swap you can resell your factory panels.
