Anyone have 5th gen front seats reupholstered? Cost?

My 2013 Limited (Sand Beige interior) has close to 300k and the front drivers seat is in rough shape. The passenger seat not so bad. The rear seats look like new. For matching purposes, I'd like to have the both fronts reupholstered with OEM material. I'm not interested in Katzkin. What kind of cost am I looking at? The entire truck looks pristine everywhere except the front seat wear.

I'm not sure how much. Some other options might be stock seats on ebay. I've seen some limited seats for like $400 each. And I'm not sure if this is the case for toyota, but I know from mercedes you could buy the OEM cover and just replace it. If you didn't want to install it yourself, a lot of local upholstery shops will do it for you.
 
I faced the same replacement issue on our 2014 SR5 (cloth seats) and on my 2005 Honda Accord (leather seats). While researching the Honda, I found ridiescom on e-bay. Inquired if the they would do Honda seats and they replied back:

Sorry, we don't have the pattern for your seats. If you are willing to send us your old seat covers then we can make the pattern out of it, but it will take about 2 months for you to get new ones. And please know that you will not get your old seat covers back.

If you are interested, then please know, and the 2 front seat covers in genuine leather will be $550 and in nappa leather will be $700.

That’s a very decent price for leather seats. I don’t always use the car as I ride a train to work in LA. I had bought cheapo Chinese seat covers which go over the existing leather. They looked good in the pics, but they slide all over the place. The real challenge is finding replacement foam, but I’m told that shops can make those.
 
The 5th Gen OEM seat surfaces are still available new. I would have the upholster company order those. Car care Nut youtube shows how to do it yourself.......too much detail work for my ADD self :LOL
 
OEM seat foam-a must is about $200 for the drivers bottom. The OEM leather cover for the drivers bottom is about $550 give or take.
