Not bad. That thread is ok, but it's not really thick enough to last. Gotta get the one with the teal colored spool.20180125_162128.jpg
If you're ever down my way, let me know and I'll stitch it up for you. Where'd You find those needles? Is the big one round or flat?

got em at joanns fabric, i only took the small one out, didnt even look that close at the larger ones. 4.99 iirc.

was thinking i could re sew it as is, be a lot easier with it not being a gaping hole to start with.

I'd be out for blood if someone touched my truck, joke or not!

I am not happy about it but it was done I have no clue who it was. None of my friends are car guys. They are either bomb techs in the military or cops haha so I have no clue who did it

Take a bar clamp or any woodworking clamp and squeeze the foam, that’ll give you enough material to sew it tighter...without having to do 2 things at once
Just dont sew it too close, follow same holes.
