This is the leather on my driver's seat.



I send my VIN and paint codes to Shokan, they say they have one for $285 plus shipping. I ask for a picture, they say they don't do that, all their seats are in good condition or they wouldn't put it up for sale.

I hate to send a bunch of $$ across the country on a promise. What is their repuation?

they are a good company but you should be able to find one locally for a little less

I can't find one anywhere. My interior is Mussel (opal gray). Mussel is the color of the leather you see above, and I can't find one anywhere around here.

its harder to find the leather vs the leatherette. if your happy with the price they won't disappoint. but I'm pretty sure a while back someone got a BRAND NEW leather seat cover from the dealer for around $300

Their stuff is usually WAY overpriced, but that's actually not bad for a whole seat. Granted, I paid $300 for my entire interior...

Not sure why they're so hesitant to send a pic though...

Yea I think that's odd. They want me to send $355 (with shipping) to a total stranger and not even show me what I'm buying. They swear its a color match because I sent the paint codes. Guess they never make mistakes eh?
