Redoing leather on seats
if i go to get the leather redone on my seats, will they do the same exact type of leather? because the leather in my rx-7 feels really good compared to the leather in the other cars i've been in, is it because its worn? i mean its has a smoother feel to it,

There's different types of leather you can choose from. The shop you take it to should have some swatches that you can look at and feel for comparison. It might be expensive depending on what type of material your gonna use though. I want to get mine reupholerstered too but for the cost they are charging me I can get some nice Corbeaus instead! I'm still debating though...

I was really thinking of the A4's, but I don't really want to deal with getting them mounted. But on the other hand, I'd hate to spend all that money on repairing the stock seats (especially when I'm not that fond of leather).

That's what I'm saying..... I got quoted $250-280 for one seat to be reupholstered in black cloth. The A4's are $320 plus the brackets $64.25... so thats $384.25 for one Corbeau A4! Might as well spend an extra $100 for nicer seats instead of getting it reupholstered..... but for me, I just don't have the money now.

I feel the same way... I recently leased a new car, and they put leather in for me.... and it total sucks. It's all rough, and not very comfortable. So that got me wondering about redoing my FD's black leather seats. I love the smooth leather that is currently in there... and they are pulled tight, not like luxury style seats. I would be affraid that the new stuff wouldn't be as good.
