We did a group buy earlier this year with about 50 Legend owners. We were able to get a very good price and they made two-tone leather, embroidered headrests (Acura Logo), colored stitching, and other options available. I paid around $600 for the kit and an additional $400 to have it install locally...here are some picts..
This was right after the install and the wrinkles in the leather have tightened up quite a bit. Quality is on par with stock....stock is a little softer but this wears better.

It all depends on how much the kit would be and how you want it installed. The kit for the Camero should be fairly inexpensive, you could probably email the site and see what the price would be.
As far as installation it really depends. I could have done this myself once I saw how my installer was doing this. You need to unbolt the front seats and unhook the rears.....turns out to be pretty easy once all the electronics for the seats were unhooked. You can get the hog-clips and tool as part of the package...we went a different route and used zip-ties and a hole punch. The only real problem I had was getting the heated seat elements back into the seats. The stock seats had little pockets where the element sat, we had to spary adhesive the element to the leather and then install it on the seat. All in all I was out $1000, but it can be done for just the price of the kit and your time to install it.
