wrinkles vs smooth - is it just an aesthetic difference or is there a difference in comfort or durability between the two?

These seats looks AMAZING 
Coming to your question, very honestly there is no money in cloth. Lot of people come up with their demand for cloth but I guess Ridies will not invest in cloth as it has multiple variations in material, further in colors. so it will be very complex. Moreover the nearest to cloth we can offer is Suede.

Those look great and my seats need to be replaced. How many hours would a good upholstery shop take to do this? the only one I trust locally charges $65/hour, so just trying to figure out a rough cost if I put the seats in the back of my other car and dropped them off.

Depends on your location. If you are in US and fall under free shipping region the order will take 5 to 6 weeks. Or if you opt for fast shipping that on 10% extra cost we will deliver in 2 to 3 weeks.
You can get a fair idea of our cost for LX470 and explore other options as well.
If any further queries you can call us at 317-516-5962

Now this seems to illustrate a language barrier, and would be a “turn off” to me.
A question about reasonable labor hours to install, seems to get a disconnected response about shipping times.

@shtbrwn86 I want to say it took me about 3 hours on the first seat and then 2 hours on the second seat. That included stripping off the rear cover and gluing on the new leather pieces on both rear cover and the pocket flaps. In hind sight I could have cut at least another hour off if I just reused the rear flaps without reupholstering them. All the required pieces were included and were full leather, even the parts you never see after the install!!
I had no prior experience with upholstery, so the first one was learning as well doing the job. I had to spend about $20 to get a half way decent hog rings and plier set too. Most professionals should be able to easily do it in 4 hours or less for both front seats.
The lowest install cost I have heard of is @OEMGUY0720 paying only $200 for both front and rear seats but I think that is an incredible deal and not likely available in most places.
