Default Rick's or JPM?

Hey guys so continuing on my conversion to a red/blk interior I was just about to order rick's center console cover and I came across a picture of a JPM Coachworks center console cover and was really impressed. The JPM one seems to be a much richer textured leather from the picture I saw. They are both the same price so now I am really torn between the 2. Anyone have any first hand experience seeing the two side by side? I will also be getting a shift boot (black with red stitching) but I am definitely getting that from Rick's due to the price difference.

Here is a link to the picture I found, its halfway down this page black with red stitching posted by S2K007

no 1st hand, but JPM looks better. ricks does a variety of things, but JMP specializes in upholstery.

I have both right now and both are equal in quality. Rick's does not make their leather accessories, Townsend does. JPM probably has much more customization, but I prefer the way the Rick's Console cover up the tabs. IMO the tabs make the interior look cheap. All other accessories I would go with JPM...

Here's my setup in my AP1:

Yes sir! That would be a Rick's console! Notice how the cover covers up the plastic tabs...

Not entirely sure which tabs you mean? I have a 2000 so I have no console cover what so ever right now

If you notice at the bottom of the console, there are some plastic tabs holding the cover on:
