Got them from a guy here in Sydney.

He had a spare set. He bought a set for his car, and the company sent him 2 sets (or something like that, im not too sure of the full story)

Anyway, the guy had his car for sale, and i went to have a look at it. He had a set installed on his car.

Anyway, i didint end up buying his car, but i called him later on, and asked him where he had got his from. He then told me, he had a spare set.

Snatched them up, as i couldnt find them anywhere else for less than $1300 landed.

Very happy with them. Quality is great. Fitment, hmm, about 98% good. Just SLIGHTLY off on the corner, but i can live with it, as its only noticeable if you looking for it.

Overall, im 100% happy. LOL. If that makes sense.

FYI- Did you know that 99% of percentile statistics are made up on the spot? LOL. Yes 99%!!!

BOCA are as good as Revozport, I bet they all source them from the same company in China. LOL

The only flaws about these covers are the cutouts for the seat controls looks pretty homemade.

Thats what i meant about fitment.

The cutouts were fine on mine, but where the leather meets the seat back, i have the slightest gap there.

Boca is great but it's hard to communicate with them.
The cutouts are the only reason why I never got these.

The wooden trim doesn't match the seatbacks

See pics of fitment below.
Remember taken with flash on, which always exposed the worst. In real life, they do look much cleaner

Those look great. You should get the maple wood wrapped now to match...

Congrats, you got a screaming deal. Looking at your photos, I think that painting the exposed CF edge around the cutouts a satin black prior to installation might help the look to be more "finished."

Yeah for some reasons the US models do not have the rear climate control option. It is a bit like the power retractable mirrors. But we do get the rear power sunshade not the manual shades on the rear side windows.

I also have the same issues

But even with the small issues they look sick

same leg room just have to be more careful as they mark pretty easy

All the carbon fiber seatbacks are beautiful, I had carbon seatbacks before, but the gap only made my OCD go wild. So I ended up purchasing the seat below. It's comfortable and only 17# or so. Here are a few pics from the website. If you want any pictures from my actual car and/or any different views please let me know.
