G550 w463 2019 pleather replacement

My G550 is great but the pleather seat covers and door panels are less than impressive IMO for the price of the vehicle.

Is there a reasonable go to source for direct replacements?

Alternatively, I’d be willing to purchase used G63 covers if anybody is upgrading for model year 2019. Only looking for black. TIA.

What did you get, the standard leather, which is no cost?

You can buy seat covers from MB or get custom ones made from an upholstery shop.

I do not want to make you feel bad but we put a leather protectant/conditioner on the leather in our new G550 today and we were impressed with the quality of the leather and amount of it; however, it was the most expensive Napa leather option so it was to be expected.

The standard seats are leather.

correct... i have the standard seats. they are leather. and they seems to be more durable than the upgraded leather interior which is a much finer grain. if you plan to drive it as daily, standard leather is pretty durable.

Standard is perfectly fine, however you will find that the upgraded leather is a better quality product and will actually out perform the standard over time. There are several threads on this very topic.
