Aftermarket or reupholster seats
You need to be more clear. Do you mean that as opposed to paying an upholsterer to strip and cover your seats you would buy aftermarket seats or that you would buy aftermarket seat covers? If you meant aftermarket seat covers, then I believe your choices are PUI or Legendary. PUI is the cheaper of the two, but then the quality is less also. Legendary is the best, but will also cost the most. I had never done any interior work before and was able to easily strip the covers off my seats and install the Legendary covers. In Legendary, front bucket seat covers for my 69 Barracuda are currently about $400, while the back seat is about $275. Bucket seat foam is about $225. If you want door cards, four door cards for a 2 door car will run about $500. If you can find a better deal than that with a local upholsterer, go for it.
