Has anyone located material that replicates the OEM R1/R2 seats? Restoring an R2 and it would be cool to redo the seats with the OEM look.

Thanks,

I had mine redone in charcoal grey alcantara, not exactly the same but pretty close.

 

^^this or black Alcantara. I redid my red leather ones in Red Alcantara and they turned out great

 

FWIW a local upholstery shop came up with a match on the bolster material on my R1 driver’s seat that was getting pretty thin. The only clue to the replacement is mostly that it’s just not as old. But you really have to look close to see that.

 

Are you doing it yourself? If not, a car upholstery place should be able to source the good automotive stuff fairly easily. I understand it's not easy for the retail market to get their hands on the good stuff

 

Turns out I actually recovered in black Alcantara after all . Here is the finished product as done by the now closed ESH :https://www.rx7club.com/3rd-gen-gene...e-esh-1114838/

 

They did my red ones too!
