so i got the foam filled in and shaped up

p1332922_4.jpg

got my patterens cut out

p1332922_5.jpg

wraped the foamm with a thin cloth to help protect the foam and also so you cant tell the foam was repaired.

i added 1/4" foam to add more comfort and a better look then factory.

is that dayton ohio?
oooh, the money I would pay for something think that!
that is sick i finished my 1j swap and was riding around this week thinking about new covers.
is there any way to make temples with sew lines?
how many yards did you use in total?

i tried this once on a girlfriends car (she could sew), it did not go well
