Cloth and Plastic seats

I’ve a strong personal preference for the Alcantara and PVC seats and not leather. However I have leather seats in my current Boxster S. 
 

Is there anyone anywhere who supplies a new Alcantara and pvc seat cover including Porsche themselves?

You probably going to need to go to a trimming specialist to get what you want.  Where are you based?  It will help with recommendations.

I don't know how the costs, or likely secondhand availability & condition stack up, but have you considered replacing the seats entirely and selling your leather ones to fund the purchase of a secondhand non-leather set? I would have thought the end result was likely to look better without costing a lot overall. I can't remember when alcantara first made an appearance in Boxster specs though, so you may possibly need to make do with whatever materials were available for the 986 (or 987 - see below).

This obviously wouldn't work if you wanted to be able to revert to the original spec at any point - eg if you have any of the other leather options on the car you may make a resale harder by putting lower-spec seats in it.

Several people on here have changed their seats, including swapping between 986 & 987, which would give you more options - it gets more complicated if you have heated and/or multi-way electric adjustments though. But there will be several threads about it, including some recent/current ones.
