Ive been contemplating these myself, saw one that had been done at Gaydon last year, looked really good. They had even supplied extra material for the door cards etc. Definatly cheaper than the whole re upholster in leather.

Not nice it will start to sag and the fit is crap if your going to do it do it properly spend 6/700 on a proper job.

I would put money on them being pulled nice and tight for the photo's but as soon as you sit on them the sag like a halfords universal seat cover.

Do it right, by decent used or get a decent re-trim which will not be just a couple of hundred quid.

they dont look too bad, ive seen worse, although the e30 retrim is in nasty colours with the stiching the wrong way

its a re trim which you fit yourself looking at it

bmw have used artificial leather, and even vynal :eek:

I would give it a go if your not after a concurs oem interior :)
