Seats, perfected
When your project requires something a little different, give our team a call. This isn't an order form, it's a conversation, one that starts with your car and ends with a seat that was never meant for anyone else's. Every build carries the same three requirements: functional, timeless, refined.
From there, you're guided through a large selection of premium materials and contrast stitching options, each one considered against the last, until every choice reflects the build in front of you. The result is a seat built exactly to your vision, delivered through a process that treats it with the same care.

Step 1 - Seat Selection and Options
Every built-to-order seat begins with a conversation: together, we determine the model best suited to you and your vehicle.
Once your seat is selected, it can be refined further with the following options.
- Adjustable Lumbar
- Arm Rests
- Heat
- Klima-Heat and Active Ventilation (select models)
- Map Net
Step 2 - Upholstery and Stitching Selection
Built-to-order seating opens the door to additional premium upholstery, paired with matching or contrasting stitching to your specification. To aid the selection, swatches can be sent directly to you, so every material can be seen, touched, and felt before a decision is made.
At this time, customer-supplied materials cannot be used. If your project calls for something outside our current offerings, reach out and let's discuss your vision.
Step 3 - Handcrafted in Germany
Once every detail is finalized, payment is taken and your order enters the queue. From there, it is placed in the hands of our team of craftsmen in Germany, who see it through to completion.
Turnaround typically runs up to 16 weeks, time spent sourcing materials from our vendors, forming your seat foam, manufacturing every metal component, upholstering, hand-assembling your seats, and crating them for transport.
Please note that custom orders are final and cannot be returned.
Step 4 - The Unveiling
Once production is complete, your built-to-order seat is dispatched via UPS Air Express, arriving with the same care taken to craft it.

FAQ
How long will it take to get my order?
Built to order seats can take up to 16 weeks to turn around, once your order has been placed and payment recieved. Payment in full is required for custom orders.
How much does a Built to Order seat cost?
The exact cost of your seat will of course depend on the particular configuration of seat and options you create. You can look at the stock seat costs on our website as a starting point. The only added costs for custom orders are a shipping and processing fee, as well as any potential upgrade depending on the options and upholstery you choose. Feel free to call or email us for a detailed price quote.
Why does shipping cost more on Built to Order seats?
Custom orders need to be sent via air-frieght which costs more. Our typical stock products are sent via shipping container which is inherently quite slow. Additionally we send our containers full, and they are booked out a year or more in advance, making the logistics of including custom orders in our container impractical and the turn around time too long. For these reasons custom orders are only sent via air-freight and with that they carry the extra cost as detailed in the question above.
Can I provide the upholstery material?
Unfortunately, no. Due to both the need to warranty the product as well as ensure the material will conform properly to the organic shape of the seats we can not use customer supplied materials.
