Ed, is it possible to make a bolster cover for a different bucket seat, specifically the Sparco SPX?

you should do it now or soon, as it will be prob mid July before it ships if not done in the next week or so ?
Best regards

I'm sorry if I didn't reply ?
I'm kinda sticking to the Porsche world: GT2, 918, CGT, LWBS ...
Sorry

So Ed delivered my covers to a hotel on the US West Coast during a business trip from Sydney. Fast turn around and smooth delivery, Ed could not have been more responsive or helpful. The covers are an easy fit and as per every other post they look amazing. I could not recommend Ed and his product more highly, next up new cushions/ covers in Pepita or maybe something crazy...

Mmmm, Crayon

I’d be interested, IF I could find a set of the seats to go with the bolsters. Any leads you all could offer, would be appreciated. Sorry for hijacking the thread.

Finding GT2 buckets is pretty easy. Expect to spend $7-10k depending on condition. Here is a set from Switchcars, a reputable seller, for $9k.

Carrera GT/997 GT3 ROW seats is a more challenging task. There is a set on eBay right now for $20k. Mooty, on here, typically has a set for sale.

The 918 seats in the new GT3 are typically $15k or so it seems, not sure what they actually sell for.

Installed them on the 3RS last weekend. Very quick process from contacting Ed to receiving the covers. Install was easy and the leather and the stitching match perfectly (except for the fact that the stitching has gotten discolored/dirty in a 9 yr old high mileage car). The bolt anchoring the seat belt to the seat base has to be removed but this was very easy to do.

Installed mine recently. Perfect match with the stitching. It was quite easy to install. Besides a great product from Ed, he is a great guy to work with. Someone who cares about his products. Thanks Ed!

Picking up a new 987 Boxster Spyder. Any GT2 bolster covers left? My car actually has special order blue leather. Is that possible?
