Default Recovering JDM Recaros

I have heard that you can get new skins to recover the JDM Recaros. Does anyone know where to get them from? I searched and could not find anything.

Be prepared to shell out $. I inquired once at my local recaro dealer just for the regular fabric (Avus) and it was like $50 a meter.

Hmm I dont know about Recaro, But Sparco seats like my Sparco Fighter were designed so that the seat cover could be taken off easily, so it could be cleaned or even replaced. and I asked a Sparco rep how much for the seat covers and it was only about $130. But then again my seat was designed to do this from the get go. You might have a harder time cause I dont think recaros are designed to have thier seat coverings removed or replaced easily.

im sure they can put you in touch with a distributor who can get the correct skins cheaper than the dealership.
