Yep. Smoothed out beautifully within a few weeks once the weather warmed up.

Yeah man they look really good! Can you tell them what colors you want or do they have set base colors?

They have a selection of several dozen different colors and finishes. They'll basically make up whatever you like.

@Torch_Vert: I've been thinking about a Katzkin interior lately. My front driver seat is all cracked and whatnot. I believe they charge $1000 for everything, right?

I'm from MA too, what town are you located in?

I got mine for well under that by shopping around (a bit over $600)

I'm just west of Boston.

Yeah, the $999 I got quoted for was w/ installation. I wouldn't want to install them myself, I have too little patience.

I'm near Taunton, if you know where that is.

Yep. Been there many times.

$999 installed is pretty decent if you ask me, it's a fair amount of labor.

I didn't think it was too outrageous. We'll see though, I have college this year so I don't know how much extra cash I'll have
