    What gen of supra? Keep in mind it might be cheaper to buy replacement covers/foam and do it yourself.

    95 USDM, drivers seat is especially worn of course.

    I have looked into seat covers from leatherseats.com and might go that route as its about $700 but just want to see what options are available in and around Calgary

    DeGreeve's is the best in the city hands down!
    I've had the leather in my old BMW, my dad's Porsche and Cherokee all done there... I will go no where else!

    For anyone interested I did contact Cascade Vans and prices are a lot more reasonable than I thought! $1000 to redo both front seats in Black Leather/Red Stitching.

    That is better than I expected, that would be a nice color combo too.

    Did you import the supra or did you find it in Canada? Don't see too many usdm mk4s in this neck of the woods.

    The mk4 is one of my dream cars but I'm too poor to afford one haha. I toyed with converting a jdm one to lhd but too much fab work for my liking (the whole welding in a lhd firewall turned me off that idea pretty quick).

    That is a good price!

    If that doesn't work out contact DeGreeve's for a quote.
    They replaced replaced individual panels on my old BMW seats cause I told them I didn't want to spend a lot on it since I was selling it. Turned out fantastic... almost made me want to keep it!

    Cost me $370 to partially re-cover the driver seat, re-dye both front seats and re-cover the center arm rest.

    The car was from Texas, so the sun had baked the interior.
    Here's the before and after shots:

    ^^ gt4rally, do you mind me asking how much that ended up running you? I know my mom's car has a rip in her leather seat that's not quite as bad as the one in your picture.

    ^ Just edited my above post... had to look up the cost.
    Should also mention, if you wanna save a few more bucks, take the seats out of the car first and take them down to the shop.

    Here's what the center arm rest looked like before:
