Switching from black leather to red nappa leather seats

[Andrew4Supra]

I figured I would start a new thread regarding the process.

I personally found the black stock leather interior kind of boring, industrial looking vinyl like appearance and I wanted to add some pop of color to the inside with red leather.

After noting some others opting to change their interior I discovered Alea Leather. They offer multiple options; colors, patterns, leather material, stitch color, oem patterns, etc... you can truly customize the seat surface to your liking.

The associated cost for the two seats with the leather covers and installation is between $1700 - $2200.

The process was extremely easy ... once contacting Alea online they will pair you up with a local automotive specialist company that partners with them. The total time from selecting a personal custom order, production, shipping from Hong Kong and full installation was less than 3 weeks.

The end result was just exactly what I was looking hoping to achieve. I would highly recommend the Nappa material for a smooth supple (grain / texture free) finish for a high end look and feel.

My exact specs are pictured below for reference.

Additionally, I opted to remove the seats myself to assure a flawless removal and installation. However, the company will remove your seats for you and complete the full installation if you prefer at no additional charge.

I only hope we can get great installers like you did lol

I love the color options and your installers were awesome. To repeat what bigboss said, I would hope to find an installer that can match the quality you recieved.
Is there a way to see what installers they use in my area?

~ Yeah I was elated with the company and installer. His attention to detail surpassed my expectations.

That's the Tungsten body color, correct? Looks great!

I might have to put my stock seats back after seeing this! Looks amazing! Can they custom embroider a Supra logo onto the headrest?

~ Yes Tungsten. Thanks!

Can they custom embroider a Supra logo onto the headrest?

~ Yes... another owner just had it done on the standard verona leather (more of a pebbled appearance grain).

Alea calls it 'debossed' and it's an added $200. Looks sweet!

 

[Teleguy11]

Ok, that's it. I'm seriously considering the Amaretto with the Supra logo. It's the closest I can get to saddle brown which I think would look great with Tungsten.
Break out the debit card. Let's go!

Dang man, these look absolutely incredible against the silver, great contrast. I'm sure you were blown away too when you first saw them. That mod was worth every cent.
