They do require sticking to your existing door pads/cards obviously, and probably not up to Dave the Trimmer standards of course, but for a cost effective way to spruce up some grubby looking door furniture I don't think they are too bad
They do them in different coloured stitching to match your car too, and the service was excellent.

Yeah, that was the decider

Quality of the leather is fine, supple with a good grain.
That sounds like I know what I'm talking about, which I don't, but all I can say is that I'm happy with it, to the extent I'm considering ordering a hide from them so I can fanny about with some other bits and pieces.
How easy were the door cards to do? My door cards are red Alcantara and looking a bit tired. Black leather with red stitching sounds tempting!

Easy enough if you take your time, I used repositionable Evo stick and some aerosol carpet adhesive for the larger flat areas.
A sharp pair of scissors is helpful too.
When I removed the old leather covering from my original door cards they had a layer of thin foam underneath which I retained, as this helps to make the diagonal stitched lines lie flatter as there is a bit of give behind the seams.
Hmmmmm, might be worth a go, but knowing me i'll make a right mess and stick the door card to my forehead!
