Actually, I never upgrade my seat covers in my new cars, but when I sat in a car with these fitted I had to have them.

They feel great and look better than they do in the pictures. The steering wheel and gear shift feel so sexy. The best money I've ever spent.

I gotta call some custom upholstery shops and get prices.

Keep us updated! If anyone finds a vendor to ship us these seat covers, or comes across something comparable, please share with the group!

Even if they ship them here they wont fit the USDM GE8's, plus those Mugen GE (09's+) seat covers are not official as posted earlier in this thread. (they're not made yet for the GE's)

Mugen did make the same leather covers for the GD's (07-08's). They were on japanparts, or jdmland, or kingsports for about $1200 or so.
If Mugen does release GE leather seat covers they will have to make a USDM GE8's version as the JDM seat backs are slightly smaller (JDM Fits still have refresh mode, 09 USDM = no refresh

)

The best bet is to go to a custom upholstery shop and get the leather done.

It's gonna be even more difficult for me because I'm planning on doing a right side seat back swap (since the JDM seat backs are smaller I want to swap my right side seat back with the JDM seat back to regain REFRESH Mode) so even if Mugen does release a USDM GE seat cover set, I'd still have to have the right side passenger side modified for the JDM seat back. I think my best bet would be to get them done custom, especially since I'm thinking of getting the Webasto Seat Vent system installed before I get the leather done. The only problem is I don't plan on doing the leather wrapping, and seat vent system for at least a year. If I even get the vent system, trying to find some opinions, feedback on it ---> https://www.fitfreak.net/forums/gene...on-system.html

Regardless, those leather seats, and interior is NICE!!!!!!!
Lek, enjoy them, they are truly beautiful!
