I know some have done this...Demick.
I'd like to see some examples. I'm tossing around the idea of glassing on full bolstering and covering with vinyl to match. I like the ready to buy seats and all. I also like a good project, too. thanks, KT (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) |

Mine cost about $100 in materials (that was enough to do 2 seats, although I only completed one). Time was probably about 20 hours of labor - most of it doing the upholstry work. It was a real pain. I don't think I would do it again. #1 reason I did it instead of buying the Renegade seat was because I wanted it in brown rather than black.
BTW, Trekkor - watch out on how the size of the seat will change when you cover it with foam. It gets smaller very quickly when you add the foam. Demick |
