take a look in the wash and wax forum, theres a thread all about leather care, and there is one guy who does professional restorationg. he is on the east coast (red bank, nj) but im sure he could point you in the right direction for places in your area!

(Nitpick) ....................................
You might want to change your title to read: "Re-cover" or "re-upholster". "Recover" implies you are trying to get back what was taken or stolen. (And we have seen a lot of stolen S2000 seats.)

ps. Look what just got posted:

Yes, Euros. Sorry, that would be US $ 958 at the current exchange rate. A fair price I think.

You can buy new OEM seat covers on eBay sometimes. There are upholstery shops that stip when they're new and do custom jobs and then sell the covers. They usually go for around $500.

Ooooh, I want the red leather! I would love to keep the 06 seat with it's sensors and all for safety, just red!

Would it be too much to have the steering wheel re-upholstered also to match the seats??? Opinions?

I want to get the leather on my steering wheel re-finished. This should be significantly less than re-covering. See if they can do that.
