Leather is definitely not a perfect match (worse than factory which bugged me before) My fault it looked good before I ordered it. Good news is the leather matches the floor mats and sub box vinyl pretty well, and none of the interior brown matches anymore due to fading anyway lol

I painted my interior trim (4 door "carbon fiber" pieces and dash bezel) with factory spray can paint (3 light coats) and 3 THICK coats of clear coat from autozone (NOT duplicolor I hate that junk).

The small nick I will have to repair, I did that while putting the car back together, being in a hurry got me again.

To those who don't know the leather over time conforms and the wrinkles go away, this is one of the best leather I've seen installed (in that it looks the best immediately after installation of any I've seen in awhile)

Leather was done by Extreme Vehicle Designs in Noblesville Indiana. Interior trim I did myself. Leather kits for vehicles more than 2-3 years old are about $1250, and if they are newer it's about $950-1050.

they're custom leather, not from any car made specifically for mine I jus suck at picking colors I guess.
 






They look comfy though!

that they are. It doesn't look as mismatched in person because of the other stuff they match, but yeah lol
