Do you want to change just the seats from black to red? Yes it's possible. It'll most likely be $$$$$$ if you try to swap them out for the red leather seats from Infiniti. Because the red leather only comes in the IPLs (I think), chances are you're not gonna find a used set. You're best bet is to get aftermarket leather seat covers. There are a lot of good companies out there, you just gotta do some research. Reupholstering the front and rear seats should run you less than $1,000

There was a thread on here a few months back about someone actually changed the color of the leather. The person that did it I believe went from black to a tanish brown. Looked like it came out well.

I tried to do a search for you, but I couldn't find it. Maybe one of the mods remembers and could link it. I don't remember how much they said it costed.

Re-coloring/dying the seats doesn't work on leather. It will only last for a few months before it starts to chip, peel and rub off on your clothes. Somebody on the G35 boards did it to his car...while it looked gpod when it was done, its gonna look like shlt after some wear. Imagine being all dressed up and getting out of your beautifully sparkly clean car only to have dye stains on the backside of your pants lol

This seller gets them in from time to time, they have the rear now. They may be able to get you a complete used set if you want to go that direction.
