mackster Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 (edited) I got my inspiration from rockwood, I saw how good his seats are so I decided to look around for someone that can do my seats on a budget. I found this guy here close to my house that charge me $695.00 for both the front and rear seat complete. he replaced all the stuffing( I dont know the real word for it) and re-did the seats for me in two weeks. I am happy with the results and yes, I am really flashy kinda fellow! the color is really out there, now I got to get the rest done before summer..... let me warn you. this is inside the house picture the final fitting picture under the california sun should be loud and blinding!

BobT-47P15 Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Look good, Mack........... Glad you were able to get them done. Quote
randroid Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Mackster, Rest assured you'll never lose the car in a dark parking lot. Dare I ask the color of the car? Just pulling your chain a bit because seats that bright will not go unmentioned and I wanted to be the first to put my foot in it. Looks to be a fine job of reupholstering you got for a decent price. Congrats! -Randy Quote

Captain Neon Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Upholsterer asked me if I wanted fluorescent orange on my seats. Quote
Plymouthy Adams Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 its always a good feeling when you are able to meet a milestone on your project...enjoy the moment.. Quote
55 Fargo Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 Looks great Mackster, the color is really gonna fit the theme of your car.......... Quote
Frank Elder Posted February 23, 2010 Report Posted February 23, 2010 That's awesome Mackster! If you had gone to TJ the stuffing might have smelled a little different.....;)LOL. Quote
mackster Posted February 23, 2010 Author Report Posted February 23, 2010 your name says it all captain NEON! I say you should go for neon! you are right Tim! I had always thought this moments will never come. It has been forever since I have been thinkering wit hthis car, but its moving along now! Rockwood, you were the person that got me thinking it can be done on a budget and make it look good! I got the door panels off ebay and I am following Ed's post, so maybe I can recover my own panels... Frankie, It was tempting to go to good ol' TJ, but with all the violence lately, I prefer to stay out of there, plus the US needs the economy boost! and I dont like cow dung for stuffing on the seats!
