Mugen Leather Seat Covers




I'm thinking about having these Mugen Leather Seat Covers fitted.

Any comments on improving the design of door trim and logos etc.

not a fan of leather myself, but anything is an improvement over the stock material we get, everything sticks to them, and they are impossible to vacuum clean.

I like the way the doors look though.

Say Lek, I noticed you are in Thailand, could you tell me if the Fit/Jazz is the US spec ones? Reason being is I wanted to know if the headlights are the same, as I may order some projectors, and lastly how close are you to this shop?

if you are close it would be awesome if you could get down that way to take some shots of the projector housings they offer...

It's going to cost me US $750 for the seats, door panels, steering wheel, gear shift and hand brake all matching.

Everything is custom fit, so they will come and strip the inside at my home next Wednesday. They said it will take about 3 days.

I saw a 2007 Civic and a new fit at the weekend and they looked great, apart from the Mugen Logo which I thought was too big. I think the mugen logos could do with being 25% small for the fit.

Rstyleracing sell lots of stuff, but many people complain about the low quality.

This is where I buy all my suff, http://www.imadesports.com/product_374013_th . They're great people and everything fits perfect. The only problem is, they don't export.

You can see lots of pics of cars, including mine.

So the ones on kingsmotorsports are official Mugen GD covers? I'm guessing Mugen might eventually release theirs for the GE?

But then if I get the JDM GE seat backs I'll have have to somehow mix and match.

Well, I went for it. Just got the car back and it looks great. It feels even better. I also decided to do a leather steering wheel, gear shift and hand break. Wow! the smell of real leather.

Damn I really want that leather!!! The more I see it the more I want it.


I gotta call some custom upholstery shops and get prices.
