drpaulmarsh is infamous around these parts
I only had the driver's side left lumbar bolster area re-done. It had a cut in the leather and normal wear in the foam pading had made it soft from getting in and out of the car.

Then I had my my boxster red seats, shift ****, rear center consule and both doors re-dryed.

I think I was out the door under $500

I do not understand why you would do this? You can get brand new inserts (leather) whatever color you want for less than $300. They also velcro open so you can add whatever padding you want (I added some visco-elastic foam). There is a lumbar pad also behind the inserts that can be adjusted.

I posted the link for the seat inserts earlier.

The inserts from your link were $350. And for this price, I would rather do alcantara instead of leather. Thanks for the link.

Stat - Is the $350 for both seats? And also, did it not come with padding or did you just want to add more?

Thanks!

Oh...I got them when they had their 25% off sale (paid $280 including shipping). It is for both seats...there is some padding included, but I wanted to add some additional. I got a mattress topper (1.5") for $40 and cut it to size.
