We have really gotten a lot of great reviews from many people especially on this website. Thanks Mike for posting your pictures.
We just made a yellow set for a guy in Utah. They turned out amazing!! With black stitching.
Embroidery is also well received and we make them with the logo from the back of the car or a regular logo in block letters or whatever writing you want.
If you go to the TeamFC3S site and look at For Sale, scroll down to the post that says Upgrade your Interior you'll see some of the embroidery and I believe the yellow boots.
We welcome inquiries and we make them by hand, individually to the customers desires, drawstrings, 1st gen, 2nd gen and 3rd gen. We also need to know the variables of what surround, shift stick and other details. It can get intensive, but I don't make one size fits all. Its all individualized to the customer's order. And I have tried all the second gen permutations in my convertible and now my new GXL.

I have a friend who is making them for MR2s. He's not the type of person I would think would be good at stitching, so I would think that almost anyone could make one. He uses a really good kind of leather (I don't remember off the top of my head so I will ask him next time I see him).

One mistake on a colored stitching by the seamstress and it shows. We want perfection and the spouse will not send off if it doesn't meet here standards. Black stitch on yellow leather, difficult to do.
Of course I can only relate what we have done and the experiences that we have made making these.
