Leather over the arm rests???

What do you guys think? Could I take my arm rests to an upholster guy and have him just cover them in leather to match my seats? Work/look good you think?

Dunno, good question though - call up some upholsterers and see what they think. They'd be able to give you a better idea of what will and what won't work.

Yes, they should be able to do it. ANYTHING is do-able if you are willing to pay enough for it.

When I did my interior the Upholster actually offered it to me. I was already spending about a grand more than I wanted to, so I turned him down.
