They look like they have already been retrimmed once before (in coarse 90s Jap fabric).

A motor trimmer will do front and back for under $500 and they'll look and feel a million dollars.

Otherwise, you're best off getting the smallest Supercheap type aftermarket job you can find. They will be close enough, but you could tighten it by sewing in a lacing arrangement for the underside to pull it taut under the base of the seat. Most of the covers for the upright section feature a draw string at the base that tightens around the folding area of the seat.
