Default Nice seats

Today i went to my friend Mike at his shop. He started to restore a '80 for someone else yesterday. The owner bought those pre instaled seats cover on the foam. It was the first seat i've seen like that. I dont know where he bought them but it was a real nice job. If i was in the market for new seats i think i would go with those pre instaled cover. NO problem of fit on old foam.

Most good interior companies will refuse to put their seat skins on old foam. Don't get me wrong it can be done but if your going for the new skins, why not spend the extra few bucks and get new foam which will make the overall job come out right and LAST.
