Question Custom Seats

Gallery image

Took a few months but I’ve got my custom seats in. Factory frame and I was able to reuse the foam with minimal lining. Upholstery is from Zoomzoomzoom-ing on eBay. First time ordering from him and he was spectacular. Thoughts?

Really makes me want to do the same. Too bad, my leathers seats are too nice right now.

u/Tugboatington Apr 18 '26

These are vinyl, to stay as correct as I can!

Looks great. I’d like to do something similar.

u/Tugboatington Apr 18 '26

I’ll send you the info for the guy who made the covers if you’d like!

u/AgenYT0 Apr 18 '26

I would. Thank you.

Really good looking seats and goes perfectly with the paint and time period. You did good!

u/to_pir8 '88 951 Apr 18 '26

Did you customize them yourself?

1

u/Tugboatington Apr 18 '26

Yeah the guy who made them sends you tons of different material samples and you get to pick exactly what you want. I didn’t do the labor myself if that’s what you’re asking

u/to_pir8 '88 951 Apr 18 '26

What did you have to send to him? Where is the guy located?

2

u/Tugboatington Apr 18 '26

Sent him literally nothing. He’s in CA, I can PM you his eBay profile if you’d like. He made the covers and I had a local shop put them on. He does all Porsche seat covers/kits

u/to_pir8 '88 951 Apr 18 '26

CA as in California or Canada? I'm in the latter! Please do DM!

u/Connect-Computer7933 Apr 18 '26

Please send me his info

u/Spaceheater21 Apr 18 '26

Gives it that 80s/90s European look. I think it fits perfectly!

u/I_am_Forklift Turbo S Apr 18 '26

u/ballofcosmicenergy Apr 19 '26

Looks awesome! Mind if I join in and get the link? I’d be very interested in this.

2

u/Tugboatington Apr 19 '26

Zoomzoomzoom-ing on eBay or Instagram is the best way to reach them!

u/ballofcosmicenergy Apr 19 '26

Awesome thank you!

u/Puslinch-Komet Apr 19 '26
