Replacing seat covers?

Whats the best way to go? OEM covers or are their any good aftermarket alternatives? Thanks.

I am in the auto business and we use aftermarket seat covers for our customers all the time. With a good installer they come out fabulous, better than OEM and cost between $1000 and $2500, depending. With that they are not Porsche OEM's, but if I would do it, I wouldn't hesitate to go with the aftermarket.

With that price range, wouldn't it be better to pick up some slightly used pair of seats?

Not sure what interior your's is but even used sports seats aren't that hard to find if it's a common color.
