Small teaser on my leather Install. Rubitrux in Boone NC is installing while I’m out of town. Looking forward to picking up in a few days.

That leather looks great. Did you order the package from Alea directly or did your installer order them? Also, if wouldn’t mind sharing how much the leather covers costs and how much your installer is charging to put them in, it would be helpful.

Cost is right at $2300 installed. Ordered through Rubitrux directly and was able to customize most every detail.

How do these compare in price to Katzkin?
Not sure how Katzkin charges for their Napa, but they should be similar. Katzkin does not offer as many stitching patterns as Alea so I found I had more options in terms of design. I’ve had Katzkins on several other Jeeps though and they are great as well. This will be my first with Napa Leather and while it may be a few hundred bucks more, I thought the quality justified the cost.

When I had my Katzkin done in my Camaro, I think my installer screwed up. I paid $1200 installed for the Napa (Tuscany) leather. According to what I read it should have been about $15-1600. Still cheaper, but you’re right that this company has many more patterns. For my money, I’ll stick with Katzkin when I get my JL, but yours is nice for sure.

For those wondering, I also ordered the matching center console leather w Red stitching to match. The factory Leather Group also includes the E-Brake handle & top Dash Trim w Red Stitching, so I hope to be able to order those parts to match once available.
