Default Anyone replaced their leather with alcantara?

Went to the auto show and sat in the new sti and i have to say im jealous of their seats, leather bolsters but alcantara down the middle. Anyone done this to their seats? How much do you think it would be? I could be wrong, it might have suede, but it seems like everyones using alcantara these days.

www.jpmaccessories.com has seat covers you can get like that. Looks nice imo.

maybe you should actually check it out instead of bashing it, its not a typical seat cover, its a brand new skin. you take off your ratty old leather skin off your seat and replace the entire skin with a brand new one.

these arent cheap lil seat covers you just slide on. its an entire replacement
