Um, yeah, that looks like 2 entirely different grades of leather. I’d be upset also.
Did you contact them about that?

This was my experience, unfortunately it wasn't pleasant.
I thought the company was based in Delaware. So when I received an email saying, shipping is through European Union with Priority Mail and will take up to 3 weeks with no tracking number. I was a bit confused and upset.
*That's on me for not doing further research.*
Their website does not lead to a proper representation of what you are purchasing. A small color preview is provided but they aren't actual photos of the material. Having ACTUAL photos of the material for the color swatch would be preferred...
I wanted an all black leather arm rest with red stitching. Then I saw the $3.00 option for perforated leather and decided it would look nice to get the center perforated... little did I know, this is where I smurfed up. The perforated leather does not have the same feel or color as the solid black leather. The solid black feels nice and the perforated leather feels like pleather.
The seams on the perforated leather look terrible. Probably because to reduce costs they have sheets of perforated leather that they cut their shapes out of, unfortunately you end up with shitty seams when you perforate before cutting the shape.
Maybe I'm overreacting, but with all the R&D I see them doing in steering wheels, I was expecting this piece to be nicer than what I received.

I did not. I was already upset that it took 3 weeks + to receive what I got. In dark lighting it looks alright, but in bright light... well see below. Not at all what I wanted, but my seats arrive this friday. I'll get to see how it all looks together, and if I can't stand it. I'm replacing it, but not with another Redlinegoods product.
Apparently you can install the hinge wrong... note the horrible gap. I'll be correcting that this Thursday.
The sad part is, I actually already expressed my issues with their website and was worried that this exact problem would happen back in Feb.

Properly installed + dark lighting = Not too bad.

Again, compared to my damaged OEM arm rest, this is 100% better. I didn't want a two tone of black and grey.
