Made-to-order upholstery by Katzkin out of California. Mahogany leather with red stitching. Front seats are heated.

Wow!

That looks absolutely beautiful. Not a bad price either for F&R

Kostamojen · 03-01-2015, 11:20 PM

I like it.

SkAsphalt · 03-01-2015, 11:36 PM

Very nice! Thanks for sharing.

funwheeldrive · 03-02-2015, 12:13 AM

Nice. I think that is a great combination with Asphalt. It sort of reminds me of the CB interior.

PNW FRS · 03-02-2015, 12:29 AM

The 2k included adding heated front seats? Did you go with BRZ style on/off switches?

Judging by the pics; no...

OP: It does look really good! I never liked brown leather seats in any car but this actually looks alright.

Yes. Total cost before taxes was $1870 and the front seat heaters were part of that.

No. The switches for the seat heaters are located on the front outside corner of each seat base. They're very small. I had no choice in the matter. It was the upholsterer's standard method. They're easy to find without looking.

Looks like nice workmanship, I think the rest of the interior needs more brown so the seats seem more integrated,

I actually like the alcantara, stops you from sliding all over the place..

8R6 · 03-02-2015, 01:00 AM

damn! that looks straight up OEM too!

Kaotic Lazagna · 03-02-2015, 01:55 AM

They didn't do your door inserts? I thought the standard leather work are the seats (front and rear), door inserts, and center arm rest (if applicable). Great price tho since it includes the butt warmers. lol.

Reminds me of the Tundra 1794 interior. Are you planning on getting either the handbrake boot and/or gear selector boot replaced with brown leather?

EAGLE5 · 03-02-2015, 02:12 AM

Thanks. I now don't want brown leather.

calmtigers · 03-02-2015, 04:58 AM

That looks absolutely gorgeous, should have been an option

Looks neat! Are you gonna change your steering wheel, shift boot and the interior stuff?
