Default remove these stitches

anybody know how to remove stitching in a seat. i'm worried about holes left behind by the needles that did the stitching. I like this seat because of the two tone, but I know mugen doesn't make these seats. so i don't want to sport the mugen badge on this one.

Pic works now. You will probably just be able to cut the stitching and pull out the colored thread just like anything else that is embroidered. I am willing to bet the holes would be pretty small and you wouldn't notice them unless you were looking for them..

At the same time, I think it would be a waste of time to do. I understand where you are coming from, but it just seems like it would take too much time for it to be worth it for me.

looks like it is stiched into the seat to me. your not going to be very successfull getting that out.

that is a generic recaro seat, just keep looking around and you will be able to find ne with out the mugen symbol on there.

If you're uncertain of how you can do it, take it to an alterations place. I took my sparcos down to a place in town, they pulled the sparco lettering out for like 10 bucks and you can't even tell anything was there.

take a black permanent marker and mark it out so it will be less visible. from what I can see it looks small so I dont think it will be noticed too much.
