Re: Finally got my seat covered!
I keep looking at the picture of my seat and i see a bubble in the middle on the vinyl. My wife says i'm nuts and it looks great. I sure hope I'm happy with it when I finally get to see it in person. I'm pretty picky.
ANTICIPATION!

Re: Finally got my seat covered!
That seat does look nice. You will never notice the bubble/wrinkle you are talking about once it heats up and contracts several times. I know you won't see it when you are sitting in comfort driving down the road. What did that job set you back? tnbumper

Re: Finally got my seat covered!
No. I called about 5 shops and they were all within $25.00 So I just picked one. I am at home now looking at it and I'm OK with it. The cloth part is raised a little because its got foam and pleats. I think it will be fine if not i will have the upholstery shop add some foam in the middle. It looks better in person that it did in the picture. Still kind of a KILROY!
Springs were good and foam too, Just had to put new burlap under all of it. Tim
