Re: IML: Pearlescent Leather for Front Seats



 Hi Jon!! if and when you DO find a supplier for that 'pearlesent' leather PLEASE!!! send me a email letting me kow where you got it from! I will probably need some myself in the near future, hopefully not for the immediate future, but it never hurts to find out supply-sources, if you know what I mean.
Thanks bunches!

Anyone bought any Pearlescent Leather hides lately?  I called SMS today and 
was quoted minimum $900 per hide.  That's more than twice the price my 
upholstery guy can get some very high quality hides for from local supplier. 
  He can match the color very well BUT not the Pearlescent finish.  Thing 
is, SMS told me they charge that $900 price with or without the Pearlescent 
finish.  I'd consider going with my local guy's leather and forego the 
original finish but my back seats are near-perfect so it's only the front 
seats that need doing.  People tell me labor is the real cost of seats but, 
in this case, the original finish materials would cost me 3X what he'll 
charge me to do the work.  On top of all of that, SMS tells me it takes 5-6 
weeks from the time I pay in full to get the material.  I "hear" that could 
really be 5-6 MONTHS with those guys.

Anybody have any suggestions?  Alternative suppliers of Pearlescent Leather? 
  Spare original front seat covers hidden somewhere?  I have a '66 Crown 
Coupe hardtop - leather is burgandy red.  The color code plate is on the car 
if I need it.

Thanks,
Jon
