Default Just bought a Z and want new leather seats--hate the orange

I have the orangeish leather seats in the Z I just bought and would like to go katzskin leather or similar. Anyone know of a good upholstery shop in the Irvine to Huntington Beach area? I am looking for a 2 tone black/gray....

I'm not sure about that cause the cloths don't have power ey? I still want leather just different leather. I might be interested if for some reason they can only put leather on cloth seats which I think may be the case.

Not sure if it's worth the trouble, but lots of people would trade or even pay for your orange seats.

Selling your orange seats for cloth ones and then reupholstering those would be the most cost effective option.

I have a grey car and they don't look as nice as two tone black/gray would.

Do any cloth seats have power as well? I still want the power seats, if so then I am interested in trading for some cloth power seats.

jsut dont go through the dealer. I think i paid like 800 or 900 to have the cloth seats redone with two tone black and grey leather. Good job but expensive.

so do any cloth seats have power? That would be the best route. Someone once told me that you cannot get new leather on seats that already leather.
