Better pictures of my LEather Trim Ltd seats
bought these on a group buy David was running recently... as I've said before, I am very pleased with the seats.

as a friend of mine always quotes,
"that LOOKS tighter than a 12 year old."
I love the patch on the seat where the legs are, really accents it well. Is it on the passenger side, cause the picture doesn't show it well if it is.

yes... I do have side airbags. In fact... Leather Trim LTD used my seat covers as the pattern for the side airbags. Notice the top extra piece on the side of the driver's seat... .that's the airbag cover.

Nope... that is the factory design of the seats. The Passenger seat does not have that extra bolstering like the driver seat. I suppose it could be added... but the drivers seat has extra padding in that spot.

Yep... I did a write-up in the Vendor Review of 350zForums. That's David's company, and the connection to these covers.
David was running a GB on them...mine were more $$$ because of the blue ultrasuede inserts. Regular all-leather covers were something like $450 in the GB.
David is great to work with.... went out of his way to make sure Leather Trim Ltd could get the right color blue ultrasuede. david followed up with me several time during the day to make sure the everything was ready. And, he arranged for me to meet Josh at his shop in Arlington for the install.
Josh and Leather Trim Ltd have a huge reputation in the custom interior business. There's about two dozen magazine spreads in their office of different custom jobs they have done. Very good quality stuff and very good construction.

I'm not a fan of the headrest emblem.... but that's just me.
I have a black leather with blue stitching shift boot on the way.... the shift boot stitching matches the blue stitching on my seats.

I thought you meant the blue leather boot. Black leather with blue stitching wouldn't look too bad I guess. I like the emblem...I'm the only one (that I know of) that has the blue emblem...I was the first at least. It really looks nice in person...looks sorta plain without it...

Actually... in my opinion, the Leather Trim Ltd seat cover is a better kit that Katzkin.... no offense to you or your kit. But, a lot of the Katzkin's I have seen don't fit the seat very well.
Josh at Leather Trim made his patterns directly from the OEM seat cover. His covers fit snug and tight, no puffing at all like I've seen on some Katzkins.
I paid $600 for my covers... a little more than others because I had Josh put Ultrasuede inserts in mine. And, yes, that is for BOTH seats. I think $1k for Katzkins is too high. The going rate for that kit is about $550. You made your dealer VERY happy.

Well, I really didn't know what all my options were, but I had heard of Katzkin before with good comments and I had seen one of them installed previously from the same dealership and it looked good. As you can see from my picture above, in this post, they fit very well...I am very happy with them.
By the way, I originally ordered my car in late June...finally got it on Aug 8th, gave it back on the 12th to have a Nismo wing and Injen intake installed along with a couple of paint fixes and I still haven't seen my car since then. They tell me (for the 100th time) that I will have it tomorrow. I don't think I've ever been as pissed off and stressed about anything in my entire life. Sorry...I know that's not related...just needed to vent. I think the "you made your dealer very happy" kind of got me going again....hehe.
