I've never seen "leather mirror covers. The ones I've seen are all heavy grade vinyl.
SPEED LINGERIE also makes them and in colors. It seems to me a pair was about $80 when I bought the SPEED LINGERIE bra. They don't come off at highway speeds. They've taken some rock hits and sustained no damage to the vinyl or mirror beneath. They're made as good as the SPEED LINGERIE bra (triple layer construction) and have a lifetime warranty. I think I got mine from PFYC, but I'm sure there are other vendors that also carry them (CORVETTE CENTRAL for one).

Southern car parts sell the nylon ones that fit like a tee shirt. I would also check the "big" auction. I have some from Colgan & love them.
