Went to Piercey Toyota dealer for tail light replacement.

FRS in a showroom has a new katzkin coach leather.

website: www.mycoachleather.com

EDIT: coach leather uses katzkin leather

i want! I'm still up in the air between just getting some custom vinyl clazzio covers for ~$400 or to just go all in and get the katzkins. I love that design

me too, i like this one, price stated was $1435. i have the katzkin leather to, but just the regular leather thingy.

Oh man, that looks sick! I'm having trouble finding a place to get Katzkin installed here though. The dealerships around here haven't even heard of Katzkin...

Interesting... I wonder how that arrow thing feels on the back?

I would just look for any custom auto shop that does seats and whatnot.. I found 2 auto shops in my area that advertise katzkins and said they could do the install for around $500

wonder if leather seats would solve the issue i have of getting a static shock every time I get out.

I ordered mine at the end of last year so ill post up some pics and review it when it finally comes in. the very first down side is that its made to order from japan so its about a 12 week wait.

yea i was considering getting the black vinyl with red stitching and a red 86 logo on the headrest but i really want the full katzkin conversion. If only it wasn't $1000 dollars more with installation...
