Time to recover some trim . Since the seat guy was a dueche I'll do it myself

Good luck...I havent tried recovering any of that stuff...luckily my kneepads are decent..though I did cover up a big tear in the center console.

That new material looks fantastic. What is it and where did you get it?

Well you would be surprised lol. Joann fabrics had a decent selection of marine and auto vinyl when all your looking for is black. The product number is on my receipt. I'll show you when it's done. My cuz is good with a sewing machine. Sent her my old vinyl as a pattern.

Thats a good price...didnt realize joanne would have those...i went to an upholstery shop when i needed some to repair my speaker panels...had to buy a whole yard of it at $30..when I only needed a tiny amount...funny story...the owner was gonna sell me a scrap for cheap that woulda been all i needed, but his wife wouldnt let him..lol

Decided to install that Nos fascia I had laying around I got from Mike . Still needs to be painted along with the front fascia ...but still a hell of an improvement.
