These are very nice I am on my second pair which I purchased a few months ago, the cording on the first pair started to fray after 20 years.

I have a set similar to the ones Chappy has except that mine have PORSCHE silk screened across the front. They fit and look very good, only the cording on mine began to wear the first year in use. Chappy, what are the cords on your covers made of? |

Maybe my piping wore out faster than that, their cotton my old seat savers were black and gray with PORSCHE written across the back also, my new ones are black and gray piping without the lettering which I like much better. I have a picture of the new ones I will post in a few.

They are still pretty stiff as they have not been used yet. When they soften up and you wash them they fit better. Sort of like a new pair of blue jeans.

Here's a shot of one of my tan seat covers with the silk screened PORSCHE on one of my spare spare seats.
Notice the worn piping on the cover? This is the only drawback to these. I'm considering having my wife just remove the piping completely. This is one of a pair that I got thru eBay a couple of years ago for about $70, new. Attached thumbnail(s) |
