good call on the rings. You should take pics as you progress on the work.

Looks awesome so far, I like the two tone color choice. I was configuring mine on the site and was torn on the middle of the seat backs. The two choices are gathered or smooth. The stock leather is gathered but I am curious how the smooth would look. Also thinking about going perforated on the middle inserts.

mass made covers will never look as good as custom made, and sure installing covers seems easy but you guys dont know the tricks to perform a good install nor do you have the tools probably. Not like i would know i just own an upholstery shop...

Please share your tricks with the community. I would be interested in learning as I am sure others would also.

well guys my sinuses put me down on sun when I hoped I would get to work on the seats some more but hopefully I can make some progress tomorrow!

while my "mass made" covers may not fit as nice as custom made covers from someone like yourself that just happens to own a upholstery shop. the cost savings and the fact that I'm doing the work myself makes me ok with that, but thanks for your input. I'm not building a show truck, the hoe is just a DD that I hunt and fish with so id rather take the extra money and put it somewhere else

about ready to put it back in! Here is a quick pic of how its coming. pretty much done with the drivers seat but still have a little more finesse on the rest. over all im pretty happy with it .
