Not feeling the interior fabric. In almost every case of reupholstered seats, you will see excess fabric from improper fitting. Case in point are the edges of the bottom front seat cushions and bolsters. You can clearly see areas of loose fabric where there are wrinkles and to me this a major eye-soar, reminiscent of something from a civic or the like. I really wish that on high end cars like this, that the owners would not do this. The bad thing is that the owner probably paid a decent amount of money for the job and could have spent it better on a set of aftermarket seats, kept the stock seats as they are great anyways, or gone back to the shop that did the work and insist that they redo the seats.
Just my $.02, nothing more. The car looks great otherwise and I respect the owners choice of being different and the material used is a great material.

the gtr came with the stock gray seats and they were not up to my friends liking....understandable that not everyone likes them as with everything.

looks like a big waste of money(repainting perfectly good panels, re-covering perfectly good seats, replacing perfectly good speakers). I hope he keeps it for awhile...
...GTRs are cool though!

Super, now your friends GTR seats look like eBay Racing seats found in every ricer ****box across the country. Congratulations.
I know that sounds like I'm just being a hater. That I'm jealous I can't afford one. Maybe it is, but at the end of the day, you're friend still has poor taste.
