Not to jack the thread, but how much did it cost some of you to have your leather seats re upholstered? My front seats in the integra are pretty worn.

It cost a total of $110 + tax, which I thought was very fair.

Well I definitely don't want an aftermarket wheel, can live with an aftermarket shift knob if its clean, the center console arm rest doesn't really bother me as it is.
I called around, its not cheap.. glad im not doing seats.

ya, when I was considering getting my seats recovered, it would have been cheaper to just buy new aftermarket seats. The materials aren't that expensive, but you pay alot for good craftsmanship.
