Has anyone done custom leather in their car?

RE: Has anyone done custom leather in their car?
I ordered my 07 triple black and had Katzkin red/black leather put in by the dealer before I drove it home. The cost was $1,200 and Katzin was able to accommodate side air bags. The seats even have side airbag tags on them - just like stock seats. An independent interior shop quoted me $1,150 but I went with the dealer simply for the convenience of it all.
The photo below was taken the first weekend I had the car, and the seats appear loose in some areas. I have now had the car 3 months and they are as tight as any stock Ford leather I have seen. I have applied the Maguire's leather product to them, and they have been in the sun a very moderate amount. They have simply tightened up from the heat of the sun. (I also have a 2nd set of headrest covers with red leather faces that are not shown in the attached photo.)
Overall I am pleased with the quality; and in my opinion, the two-tone leather makes the entire car. I've had numerous compliments.
For anyone looking to purchase leather for their vehicle - make sure you understand what parts of the new seats will be leather. The stock seat is not all leather, and your aftermarket ones will not be either unless you specify (and pay) for exactly what you want.
