    Anyone heard of ZACASi seat covers?

    I, like many of you, have a tear in my seat bolster and hate it. Unfortunately there has never been replacement seat covers for the B7 of any quality.
    I recently have come across a German company called ZACASi who makes tailored seat cover replacements for the B7, with options of real leather and suede middles plus a shit load of other customizations.

    Clicky clicky for their page.

    Has anyone had experience with them? Are they worth €750 ish for real leather seat cover replacements? I've been quoted anywhere up to $3,000 for seat cover replacements so this seems like a steal.

    Heres some photos for reference. (All black cause I'm boring like that.)

    Generic all black leather:

    Same, but with more suede:

    Subscribed for details/reviews/comments. I have the same tear and don't want to buy all new seats just to fix one or two panels.

    Random searches. I've had that tear for years and I often try and find a more affordable way of fixing it.
    Love my car, but its still a 10 year old car - don't want to be dropping $3g into seats or anything...

    If they give me a good price, I might just snag a set and do an Audizine review for them.

    Hi Karl,

    Why not just get a seat from the classifieds? A lot cheaper and OEM :) There are plenty available from ppl updating to Recaro's.

    Come down to San Francisco and I have a pair in my garage

    Few reasons:
    1. The suede mid's are pretty appealing to me. Same with the diamond stitched pattern, neither of which are on OEM seats (unless you have recaros, and then only the suede)
    2. I like the thought of alternative available to OEM replacements. Replacing OEM with OEM all the time gets boring ;D The only requirement is that the replacement parts are OEM or better quality.
    3. This would prevent me from getting entire seats shipped/picked up - it's only the cover.

    If you could find me suede insert Recaros for under $1000 without tears in the bolsters, and with heated fronts - I'll definitely go that route, haha

    Anyone heard of ZACASi seat covers?

    All OEM seats are just going to have the exact same tear in the vinyl at some point. My b6 had it. My b7 currently has it it has had it since I bought it with 54k miles on it. If these covers are legit, they might be a great option. If you buy them I would love a follow up review.
