Hey,

I want to get my front seats recovered. They are out of a 1995 GT. The leather is getting older and I want to recover them. When I do get it done, can I add bolstering to the sides? Is this possible?

Thanks,
Dan

Is it a very expensive process? I was thinking of doing it this winter.
Any pics or more info?

Thanks
Dan

Just buy new better seats.

I looked into all options and seems that recovering stock seats costs more than it's worth. The seat covers alone for leather seats cost more than some other seats complete.

Look into flofit seats or corbeaus.

The new Seat Coverings are already attached to the Foam so you would really be in for alot of work trying to change the shape.
