Hey! Yeah it’s reupholstered, not a cover that goes over the existing seat upholstery. I took mine to Seatz Etc in Phoenix, AZ. There they stripped the factory upholstery off the seat and replaced it with this red from Alea leather. They also do Katzkins. Any upholstery shop that’s a certified katzkin installer can do the Alea installs as well as it’s the exact same concept. Katzkin just happens to be more “popular” but I found Alea to have way more customization. It was $2,200 installed but I also sprung for additional cost, like the debossed logo in the headrest which was an extra charge of like $2-300 if I remember correctly.
got ya got ya. This is def something I’ll consider!

I also got my seats recovered in Katzkin premium leather, amaretto color and added the heating/cooling option. As for the rest of the trim (door, center panels, steering wheel), I am using the Katzkin matching material and reupholstering it myself to match the seats. I opted to take this approach because finding the hazelnut parts to swap my interior with the OEM parts proved very challenging.

I went full custom red to match my steering wheel. Had a small black alcantara accent as well.

It's the only car (under $100k) that I'd trade the Supra in for.
