    Topic has been discussed a fair bit before. From what I've heard, they are good for the price but you get what you pay for. The quality and feel of leather isn't there but for the price, it's a great cosmetic mod.

    If they are made of vinyl (also sometimes referred to as pleather or faux leather) they won't be anywhere near as nice as leather.

    Vinyl (like your door trims and dashboard) isn't porous so you'll get a sweaty bum on hot days. They look good and don't require any maintenance like leather, but unless your cloth seats are badly worn i'd stick with what you have.

    If they are real leather then the only thing holding you back is that the fit and finish probably won't be as good as factory. Also for that price it probably won't be exceptionally good quality leather, but the factory leather isn't either

    edit: it says it's "semi leather". Probably is a cheap leather with a PVC (Vinyl) coating.

    They look pretty nice to be honest... Would want to see/feel them in person before blowing $600 on them though.

    My mate got a set of these n they are pretty cool. they are not made of vinyl but they dont have the smooth thick feel of leather to them eaither. they look good, but by touching and sitting on them they just dont feel as good as factory fitted leather. But for 600 bux and the wide range of colours you can get i dont think its a very bad deal, im thinking of getting leather gts seats for the front of my car, then just ordering back seat covers from these guys.
