Wow... , personally it's not my style (but who the F cares what I think) but that is really well done!
You say it's easy, but how did you go about it?
did you buy the leather pre-cut, or did you "trace" the old leather ?

Dont know why i picked red and black, but i guess i was hoping when i will sell the car, some lady will fall in love with it lol. And wanted to match the red to my brake calipers i guess. Who cares, at least its not the garbage that Mercedes sells us, That stuff stinks.
Thank you for all the comments

Wait, you bought hides and an industrial sewing machine, have no prior experience in upholstery, and you did that?!? If so, then that is by far the moist impressive DIY I have ever seen. Somebody overhauling their transmission while blindfolded and using only cooked macaroni as tools would not be that impressive.

Lol that caliper paint thing was for a different thread, but thanks for replying. Looks like you did a really nice job on your calipers, the stock ones on my car are really ugly and since I changed rims they're easy to see. Hopefully I'll get around to painting them soon.

That is impressive - especially for just learning this....sounds like you have found a second or third calling!
