Ive been wanting to do that, but dont know how. Thanks for any help, sorry for the ot reply. not a problem dude i can tell you thats not paint thats a marine grade vinyl ( i chose marine grade cos of its high uv tolorence and its 7 yr guaranted waranty on color ) also you'll need to buy a heat gun you can get a decent cheap one from like ace hardware for like 20-25 bucks they work n last a good long time and some high strength contact cement like the 3m headliner adheasive as far as the material if you can give me an idea of what color your looking for i can get you well more then enough to do two panels and arm rest i still do alot of part time work for my old boss who runs an upholstry shop and i still get fringe benifits the material depending if you can find it for good grade any where between 50-130 bucks for tha goooood stuff which can be shaped to just about any shape you can imagine with a lil heat and patience but to the guy off the street a good grade vinyl will cost a bit more i have seen the same material sold for up to 50 bucks a yard and you'll need atleast two yards also if you feel you might not be quite qualified to do it i am for rent lol and wont charge you anywhere near what an upholstry shop will to get these panels done like this my fiance had a extremly highly reputible upholstry shop in tallahassee fla give her a price and well lets say this you can get a fair NOS kit for what they wanted let me know n i'll try to help you the best i can -------------------- I am now a part of the ihavemorethen16gc club! |
