Default Question on Re-apholstering Seats

Has anyone had it done or know how to do it? And is it expensive? Seats in the civic I just bought have a few rips and stains and id like to just reapholster them if I can. Figured it would be a lot cheaper than replacing them ..

I've seen it done and it doesn't look too difficult. A lot of places actually sell new upholstery and foam for seats. Just gotta remember to pull it tight use the spray adhesive and the hog rings.

I bought the kit from http://www.leatherseats.com, and installed it myself. It was already sewn, and that's the hardest part.

call katskins they make pretty much anything they want or buy some new seats del sols or GSR's are my recomendation i have had del sols, 92-95 civic seats, Si seats, ITR seats, and GSR seats and the ITR and GSR are my fav but if you like sitting low del sols are you best bet and look really really good. All katskins stuff is made for your car just take off strech and put the hog rings back in.
