hey, that looks pretty darn nice joey. you did a great job on the shift boot, those are a little tricky to install, you made it look real nice. the console cover looks great too and the red stitch really tied the interior in good.

How does the color of the leather cover match the factory charcoal grey leather seats? Close or exact?
It appears to be a lighter shade of grey in the pics.

its about as close as it can get without coming out of fomoco. i think it looks great with the seats or the console. we have cloth in the 06, goes great with just the console too. heres one in my car, its not dressed with anything though, and the seats have been. i`ll try to get a couple better pics tomorrow. the other 3 are the vinyl covers.

in his pic, the cover is new, the seats are aged a little. ive sold quite a few, no issues with color or anything for that matter. contact me and i can send a small sample.

we are now making them out of the matching vinyl. they look great too, and for alot of savings.

you can check out the pics and comments on the site too:

i took this pic the other day, it shows the match to the seat color pretty good, and the console. you`ll notice the floor mats are a true black as compared to the seats.

we do not put any kind of dressing on the leather, so its a little lighter and dull looking when we ship it out. i like maguires leather stuff myself. heres 2 samples, the one on the right is dressed. it makes it a little darker black and adds a little sheen to it. but even then, its a really nice upgrade for little money.

we just added a couple leather grain options.
heres the descriptions of the leather options i put on the website:

Option 1: This has been our standard grain. In the closeups you`ll see a grain pattern, but overall the leather looks smooth as seen in the pictures above, and blends the best with the console for either the leather or fabric seats. the grain on the hide is very consistent and you wont have any blemishes in the material on our parts. It has a luxury look and feel and is great under the elbow.

option 2: This is a small crushed pebble look. Its a very close to exact match to the size/ grain/ color of the plastic dash boards in the s197`s. This is very nice and has a good feel, and is still on the soft side. If your looking for a oem grain look this is the one.

option 3: This is what i would consider glove leather. It is extremely soft, has a nice grain, though not consistent, a hair darker in color and a sheen even untreated. The grain pattern varies a little as seen on the sample. if you have custom seats with a darker black than charcoal, this may be the choice for you.
