how much did all that cost you?
It cost me the price of a full hide, two yards of Alcantara, and about 12 hours of labor. I make the interiors myself at my state of the art workstation

So how does it work? You send your seat/doorpanel whatever to them and they ship it back? If so does that mean you might be able to get some torn or worn seats redone so they look good again.
Actually, you place an order for what color combo and material you want. The seats are made and shipped out and you have to send your stock seat leather back in.

The reason why these seats fit so well is because they utilize several key parts of the OEM seats that can't be replicated by aftermarket companies. Therefore, the only way to get the OEM look is to hack up a set of OEM seats. Fortunately, I have about two in reserve so premaking the seats is not a problem. And, yes, that does mean you can get any part of your seat redone.

There are two stages to making these seats; the center and the outer parts. Either one can be redone individually for a custom look or they can both be redone as in the pics. The only downside to doing just the center is that you sometimes end up with a wrinkle or two on the seat bottom where the new material meets the old material. This is really unavoidable unless it's attached at the exact spot it was removed from (millimeters make a difference). With a completely new seat, the leather can be shrunk since it's still fresh and is full of oils and moisture.

I know where to go when my seats wear out. That looks super sharp! Very nicely done. Not just materials but taste in the stripes and stitching too.

Replace all the yellow with Laguna Blue, and the black paint stripes with Silverstone, and I'd be sold.

AWESOME work. I'd like to see your car in person someday.

Absolutely. I had a blast in LA. Definitely a town I need to visit more often. I'll be back down later in the year to install a very special project but that's a secret for now
