Try this site. Their S2K covers look nice, and they have pics.

I think they're great. I've had them on the car for a couple of years now. Have not taken them off since. I drive my car year round. They make the seats easily tolerable in sub-freezing temps and in the heat of the summer, they don't roast your bare skin. You just have to get used to the smell of neoprene SCUBA gear initially. They are very form fitting and attachment is a combination of elastic straps, adjustable buckles and velcro strips. They have never shifted on me.
Here's my photo album where you can see all the pics I have of them on my seats:

This year, the outer lower seatback side bolster on the covers are beginning to "fuzz up" from the constant getting in and out. I can "pick" them out like you do fuzz-balls off a sweater if I wanted to and it then looks just like it did before. It's just not important enough for me to do it. Other than this, they're holding up very well. Being neoprene, they are easy to clean, too.

OEM leather runs around $2k for the seats and side panels. Leatherseats.com and Katzkin.com are good alternatives. I had Katzkin in my last S. I had them do black suede down the middle. It had great grip and it didn't get too hot or cold. I think you can buy seats and door panels for around $550-$600. Install is not too complicated if you're handy. Katzkin has links to shops that are installers. I think if you get it fully installed it comes to a total of around $800 for the seats and door panels.

The fit is good, but a not quite as tight as OEM. It shrinks over time though and ends up looking great. You have to deal with a few small wrinkles at first, but a few days out in the sun fixes that.
