I doubt it. Its really tough to do, its no wonder why places charge so much to do stuff. I spent around $100 just to do those parts, and still need more material. Seats would be way harder because of how they are bound. We're just using a friend of hers sewing machine, its not a really good one. You need a special kind of machine (overlock? I think) to do seats as the material is much thicker. The suede I used is rather thin compared to something you would put on a seat.

Yeah, figured I'd ask. Having my seats done is down on the list somewhere. Still not set on a material color or type yet though.

 

Thought if she were interested and could use some extra cash I'd might as well send the money your way as opposed to somewhere else.

No no offence taken at all. I hear you on not having any time. Works been killing me latley, haven't had much time to do anything. Ran some more wires, Dave's coming over tonight again to lend a hand, hopefully we can get it going this weekend. I ordered some gauges today, still need a tach and some other random things. STILL waiting on the machine shop to mill my steering knuckles... w t f I got a fan, finished the intake, got plugs, o2 sensors new battery etc. Reciepts are pile-in up quick...lol I really hope she just runs and has no problems what so ever....lol

I just saw this picture and wanted to post it here for you. Another option:

That is so janky but I would do it. It's kinda brilliant in a way.
