Looking for a mint or near-mint set of recaro seat skins for ‘11-14 GT500, either all black or black with silver stripes. Only need the fronts but will pay for full set if needed. If they are black with silver stripes I technically only need the drivers seat, but again, can pay for full set if need be.

No silver stripe Recaro skins exist as far as I know, but I’m most familiar with ‘13-14

They exist indeed (see photos). Came out of a totaled 2012 in navy blue w/ silver stripes. Thus the airbag release (and resulting bargain price).

I would be 100% fine with all black though - technically the correct color for my silver 2010 w/ black stripes.

I assumed a decent upholsterer would be able to repair, but the ones I’ve spoken with have had doubts about being able to make the repair close enough to original for my liking.

Those look like white stripes, which I do know exist.
No silver leather stripes in ‘13-14, and I’m not sure in Recaros were ‘12 only or both ‘11-12 (I know glass roof and Recaros came in ‘11-12s but one of them was ‘12 only). So you might be looking for a one year option only—just trying to help.
I’m still interested in seeing those linked aftermarket color skins on a real car, might be a great option.

I don't know of anyone that has purchased the after market ones from Lseat . com. The pictures look like they are a close but not exact match to the factory covers.

That is why I’m also looking for all black seats. They would both look good; don’t really care which honestly - whichever ones show up first!
