Katzkin Leather Install - Page 2 - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

DIF: completely agree with you about the red centers, I'm in love with this colour combo. If I can find a shop to do it reasonably cheaply around here, I'm definitely going to go for the same style.

They look like they fit really well!!!

How are the seats holding up? Quality and finish still good?

For anyone doubting the quality of Katzkin, they made top notch leather seat replacements. Many people have had them for years and they've held up great. I'm not bold enough to rock the red inside, but it does look nice on your car, OP.

The red color katzkin leather really matches well with the firestorm. Definitely makes the FR-S seem like a Lexus interior.

Looks really good. Kinda jealous.

Wow - those look good. I know Carmax uses Katzkin for all their leather upgrades.

Crazy Drew · 04-06-2014, 09:16 PM

These look much nicer than expected. It looks like they could have used a little more foam to stretch out the shoulder bolsters but otherwise very nice. I was considering full custom covers until I saw these, they look like a great investment.

I wish I could get plaid, like my MKV GTI, on the insert.

Nice as it goes better with the cross stitch colour. I wish I could have my white 86 with cream white leather accents and stitching.

They have been installed now for a little over a year. I treated them once with mothers leather Tech in the late fall. If anything they look even better than when they were first installed. I do not see or feel any difference. The look and feel brand-new. Still have a nice leather smell too. The upgraded interior is really the signature of this vehicle. Even if I'm parked right next to another firestorm, the seats just stand out. I get a thrill every time I see them.
