The factory used a leatherette.
We will however have these by the end of summer in the correct grain |

The factory used a leatherette. We will however have these by the end of summer in the correct grain Thanks ,mine including the upright trims were redone in very thin leather ,my guy said it is very hard to find but he could get it made,currently using vinyl which is less than 1mm thick,getting there but its a very complex shape to recover and I don't want sewn pieces. The current offering is less than suitable and really has no grain,surely a poor match for the upright trim pieces because it has bedliner texture (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/rolleyes.gif) . |
